Karin,

What you say makes so much sense and is related to that favorite subject of not pricing high enough. Even my young daughter tells me to have more confidence and raise my prices. I listen to her, believe it or not and have been doing just that.

So far I haven't given anything away, except as special occasion gifts to immediate family. Relatives and in-laws sometimes hint they'd like a free portrait. They don't seem to realize how much time is involved. I let them know in a nice way but it's frustrating because they make it clear they'd love to have this kind of original artwork...if it's free.

Thanks for the excellent advice.
Margaret
