Selling to and Buying Prints from Forum Members

2005-08-21 by mxgo95747

I have been a member of the forum for several years and have wondered why members 
who have web sites and sell their art, do not sell their work as does 
www.brooksjensenarts.com?  I talking about small prints on 8.5 inch by 11 inch paper and 
posting prices on their sites.  The sites would also, post equipment, inks, paper, and RIPs 
used.

To me, as a potential buyer, I would first buy because I like the print.  Second, as a person 
who dabbles in ink jet printing, I would be interested in seeing, holding, and owning other 
people's prints.

Also, now, when new printers, inks, and RIPs are out or coming out, it would be great to 
see prints first hand.  In this manner, if any of us, are interested in buying the equipment, 
we could buy prints from those individuals who already have the new printers, inks, and 
etc.  

However, I do not know if it would be financially viable sell prints in such small sizes.

I know that Clayton does sell samples of his work.  

I mention the paper size, 8.5 by 11,because that paper size is readily available.

Any way, just a thought and thanks for listening to my soap box rant!
