How I get the most out of my website!

[John Bruso]

Thanks for your feedback Karen. I certainly understand how other artists might get mad if a portrait artist was treated differently. But, my thinking has two parts and I'd love to get your feedback on it.

First, there is a huge price difference between the artists at the Gallery we are thinking of displaying Mara's work. Most of the work there are prints, prices ranging from $250-$700. There is 1 or two pieces at 1k and 1.5k. Mara's work starts at 1k - 4.5k. ideally, I wouldn't even want Mara to show in this gallery because of the price difference... but, I haven't found another one around here in that has pricing in her range.

Second, since Mara is a portrait artist and does not sell finished pieces, I was thinking that we could trade in 2 of the available wall spots she would be alotted in orde to get a floor display similar to what the potters are using. The artists are allowed 2-3 paintings on the wall per month. So, Mara would get floor space, but only one painting would be displayed.

What do you think? I agree though, it is very important to pay attention to the feelings of other artists. Its important to play fair and treat everyone's concerns with respect.
