Thanks for the reply and wonderful advice, Alexandra.
I was all set and ready to post my oils starting at $1,000 but then my husband suggested that I start at $500 until I get one or two commissions at that level and then raise my prices by the beginning of the year. It's so stressfull! I keep arguing with myself about what I should post on my site, I mean I haven't afterall, yet added the 6 new works. But I don't want prospectives to devalue my work, either.
I definately do not want to devalue art and bring the overall market value down! The advice you quoted from an art consultant gives me something to think about as I am going through this.
Just as I was typing this, I thought about a guy I just e-mailed about exhibiting my work in his bookstore/gallery and what his reaction would be to my prices. So I raised them all to be between starting at $500 and starting at $1,000. I feel better now, but my head is still spinning!
I'l let you know what my thoughts are once I straighten my head out. Maybe I'll slowly raise until the beginning of the year or when I have added 5 more works, whichever comes first. Hmm...
