Painting again

 I bought some cheap 8 by 10 canvases at Job Lot and have begun painitng some quick, or so I envisioned, paintings for my ETSY site.  Colors photograph duller than they are.  This one is done and listed for $45.

 This one is just about done.  All of these are taking gobs more time than I thought.  Plus I feel the first few are stiffer than I like.

 Angel is a work in process.

As is this one.  A first draft so to speak.  However I like this last one a lot.  Did no sketch first, just slapped on the paint.  A freer style.  We'll see what happens.

Meanwhile I  followed some on-line directions, and at last was able to sign in to my blogger account which I have been unable to do for months.  I hope it lasts.  I hope also I didnt delete the URL's of all the blogs I follow.  Sigh.  Happy Spring.

please advise me as to pricing. Is $45 too much for this sort of work???

$ 45 is very reasonable, suki, and higher would be reasonable too. I like that last one a lot too: she may have had hard knocks but she is a dreamer :-)

So glad you are painting

Love

I love the the little "Buddha" one! Is this a new genre for you? Wonderful creative expressions... Have no idea on the cost... Glad you found a way back onto blog again :)
Happy Painting!

So fun to see you painting again. It must be the spring weather inspiring you to bloom. I think you are quite reasonable price-wise. It seems that most small paintings are $45. It all depends on your time.

Thank you all for your pricing thoughts.

Mystic, not sure what you mean but I seldom have painting buddhas. I have been working in a sketchbook for awhile and have taken some imaged from the work I did in it. One of which was this buddha.

Hi Suki, wow, I love this! I love the little Buddha one, it's such a happy little thing! And the others are great too! go on slapping that paint on the canvas:) I also like the painting in your header, I guess that is a self-portrait, I very much love the expression ! concerning price I agree with jk ...
