Re: Looking for Serious art buyer
Lady Emm had a very good idea:
quote:
or going to local small bars or coffee shops and asking the owners if you can frame them and hang them on the walls for sale
In the last year I finally noticed that artists do that. Many of the stores in town have artwork in their windows. I once bought a painting when going to a paint store to buy wall paint!

Re: Looking for Serious art buyer
Don't give up Dy. Make some time for painting and tackle a variety of subjects. Have you tried any seascapes or abstract stuff yet? I am a little out of touch. Is your link up to date with all your paintings?

Re: Looking for Serious art buyer
Did you ever try out Lady Emm's idea, Dy? I've realized that a lot of artists do that. Almost every store and cafe in Alliston has artists' work in their windows or in their wall, even places like lawyers or insurance companies. I don't know what the deal is, if they get a small cut of the sale price or a free painting or what, but I'll try to find out (unless you already know). A few years ago I bought a framed William Campbell print while at a paint store (wall paint, I mean). The only problem is that they would want it to be framed, I imagine, but if you are short of frames you could probably find some at yard sales and flea markets and then either refinish them or sand and paint them.

On Dy's Map
Not all of my paintings are listed but the ones I have listed are fairly new since I moved here.
