Today I´ve varnished some of my pictures. It´s about time, they´re dry now and I want some protection. And because I was to lazy to do that the last weeks, I have to varnish 11 more. Mph. I´ll do that the next days.
And at the moment there´s a little exhibition of our club. Now my picture "Submerged" is insured with 4000,00 €! My, my. A good friend of mine, A., had that idea, because her father was a well known artist in East Germany. And he told his daughter this amount insured for the exhibition, he said, if something happens he has good money. And because A. loves my pictures and means, they´re similar to her father´s, she decided to specify that amount insured for my picture, too.
She told me that last week. She had a little trouble about it with the director of that institution, but she says that´s normal if you want to show professional art.
OK, I don´t know what to say about it. It´s really nice, of course, that she values my art that high. If it would show the next time on my bank account ... ;-)
I guess that director now looks with horror to my exhibition in september. More than one picture ... *coughs* So they´ll look properly after the pictures. *shrugs*

By the way:
Whats the matter about 4000 Euro as price for an original piece of professional artwork???
You don´t tell me that you sell your paintings for less than that, do you? *severely looks*
No, really, if I was you I would seriously think about prices!

Oh, I´m a bit late with my comment. I´m so lame, because I´m sick at the moment *cries*
In my opinion that´s a good price, too. Of course!!! But you know, in that area people don´t understand prices. Here´re a lot of hobby painters and if they sell something it´s really low. So the most people think everything has to be cheap.
Next year I´ll have an exhibition in China in a famous gallery (I´m sure it will happen), so I have to reconsider my prices again.
It´s always a tightrope walk to make prices. *sweats*
