NEW PAINTING, by Heavyconsumer on May 17, 2008 19:27:14 GMT 1, I quite like this painting. I'm no artist myself, but I think I'd prefer it wothout the type (RISE). I guess that's just a taste thing though. Well done for having the courage to post your work on a public forum. Good luck!
EDIT: Just had a look at your ebay store and there's some lovely work in there, but I feel that some of the prices are on the high side. How's it going? Do you sell pieces very frequently on ebay? Have you tried using the services of a gallery?

Hi, Thanks again for all the comments! I'm not currently represented by a gallery but do display in local restaurants and bistros etc.
Oliver, do you have any advice on approaching galleries?
And heavy consumer as for the text, I know what you mean about that, it's not my favourite bit of writing I've done. I generally like my text messy and "Punkish" but the placement and execution could have been better but this was a painting I was just having fun with so I just let the ideas flow.
I do OK off ebay and my larger paintings are around ยฃ200 - ยฃ300 which I think is decent for large originals. But if you're after a bargain I often list paintings with starting bids of ยฃ40-ยฃ50.
Apologies for my long winded reply. Thanks again for any feedback!!!

NEW PAINTING, by Heavyconsumer on May 19, 2008 8:16:41 GMT 1, Like I said, there's some very nice work in your ebay shop, so good luck! No offense intended on the pricing comment , it was just an honest initial reaction. I don't think ยฃ300 for a one off is a fortune at all, but it's tough to commit ยฃ300 (for me personally) on a piece I haven't seen in the flesh, by an artist I've not heard of. I'm certain a gallery would not sell the same pieces for less, but it's a different buying experience completely and satisfaction is guaranteed.

I agree you can't beat seeing something up close and personal.
But if anyone does wish to buy anything off me I have no problem offering refunds on any returns, for any reason. Thankfully the only return I've had so far is when someone misjudged the size of the artwork compared to their wall space.
No offense taken on the pricing comment either I understand your reasoning. I'll be sure to let the forum know when my work pops up in some galleries, so they can check it out in the flesh.

I'm a bit poor at the moment and only really looking for a couple of very specific pieces and more likely to sell than buy. But as mentioned I wish you luck and I'm confident there is a market for your work. Keep it up and keep enjoying it.
