Art Work I’ve produced so far (Constructive Criticism encouraged)

[Fivetide]

I've added a couple more new pieces to the gallery and tided up the website a bit. I'm now replicating these two using other woods to see what they look like. I'll post them whenI finish.. takes bloody ages to finish them off lol !

Again, very nice. G.

Fivetide i think you have answered your own question. Problem you are just be too nice to come out and say it .

If you think of it as commodity then you already know the price plus 40% markup. Problem is this is art and there is more in the piece than just time, electrickery and pc time. If it was me then i would scare the willies out of Lee and say £10,000

In an earlier post I referred to myself as grey old git, don't know where the grumpy bit came from. I can only guess someone has been talking to my wife!!!

The general advice about pricing is very sound. It is always difficult to establish a name in the art world, many people have already carved up sheep - they are usually referred to as butchers! I think that a good starting place for your items would be on a site like etsy and see what interest develops. Another option would be to try to get a gallery to display some items. Limiting the numbers to 50 per edition is a good idea. Just my own opinion. Good luck, G.

Experimenting with woods and finishes.. light one is Tulip satin coat and the darker one is African Mahogany with a polished surface

Sorry mate my old man is called Geoffrey, it must have been a freudian slip. I'll retract the grumpy bit if you are going to have a huff about it! ;)

[GEOFFREY]

Your dad must be ok, all the best people are called Geoffrey. Anyway don't bother with the retraction, I'm grumpy now!!! G.
