ebay progressions

I felt like putting up a thread of the paintings I've done and the ones I've sold in the past.

Fun times! Feel free to tell me what you think or check out what's currently for sale! Thanks!

Man I wish I could attach more pictures in one post... Blah.

Anyways... Here are some things that I have done, but cannot sell because I gave them to my mom. Had I known I'd be selling paintings on eBay, I would not have given them to her. But that's okay.

PS. The last two pictures I attached are also paintings I've sold on eBay.

Uhm... Right now, I'm averaging between $20 and $50 per painting.

My dad REALLY wants me to start charging more, but I'm afraid to because I feel like if I do, no one will buy them. Because I'm not good enough yet... Or something.

Aww... I tried to rep you for being so very nice, but it won't let me. Says I've rep'd too many people today.



I will rep you later, but just so you know--I really REALLY appreciate you're encouraging words. They mean a lot to me!

Thank you! That's very encouraging!!

I'm trying to turn eBay into a business. So it's really nice to hear when people say they like my work. Because that makes me feel like it's desirable and people will actually buy the stuff.

I'm buying a new digicam too! A Nikon Coolpix 5700 and I'm really excited to sell photography too. I'll also take pictures to reference to for other paintings.

AH! FUN TIMES!!!

I get really excited about painting and photography... Sorry...

Thanks!!

Heeeeyyyy, that's not bad! I'd buy one of your pieces if I had money. Seriously! I really like it. Dangit. That one that's up for sale would look good in my room, too.

I like your color, but with the landscaping you seem to get into a rut with the color schemes. Have you ever tried anything with an impressionistic brush stroke? I'm thinking you could do well with that. But your currenst style is still awesome... I saw some art a lot like yours in Mexico two years ago selling for upwards of 150 smacks. (American, not in pesos. In pesos it was like 6 digits. Cuh-razy.)

Rock on! That's nice work.

Wow! That is a very fitting word. I am amongst greatness. Those are all most excellent, Carly. Not like I could critique them like Jason can, but I think they are very good.

Thanks Andrew!!

I'm working on a new painting tonight. I'm not sure what I'm going to paint tonight, but... We'll see what happens!!

Do you guys have any ideas to new painting ideas?? What do you like to paint? People? Landscapes? Abstracts?

I'm just curious.

Here's a painting I did of a friend of mine. It's in acrylics. I used blue, orange, black and white. So all the varying colors are just mixed varients of the listed four.

I went to my friends show and I took this great picture of him. Then I took it home and painted it.

So the flowing is the picture I took and after that is the painting I did. I might sell prints of this painting, but I don't think I could ever sell the original. It's just too close to my heart.
