Alex, I had a solo show last May where I displayed work similar to what you're describing here: landscapes, non-portrait figurative work and portraits marked NFS. Your situation is complicated by the fact you have regular gallery representation so I don't know how to advise you on the financial end of things. I will say that it was enormously helpful as a marketing move for me to have a big show with great lighting on my portraits in particular. I'd never seen them so grandly presented and of course I put them in my best frames.

I paint a variety of subjects and I generally price my non-portrait paintings by size. They turn out to be less expensive than commissioned portraits but I don't think this is an unreasonalble thing to do.
