My plan for providing you with a return on your investment...
Probably the best avenue for exposure and sales is through participation in local (and not-so-local) Art Festivals and Events. Many of these events are huge, with over 20,000 attendees. What I am looking for is someone who will cover the up-front costs needed to participate some of these events. Most range between $300 - $750.

I am not someone who would take money from a believer if I did not fully intend to return it. If you look at my business plan, you will see that I don't make a penny until you get 100% of your investment back. While I cannot guarantee success, I think you will find my plan simple enough and attainable enough to be worthwhile. Sales of 1 or 2 pieces at a show will give you your investment back, then I can work on making you some profit for your efforts. Nothing pleases me more than creating a win-win situation.

Another other option is selling prints of the original paintings. Prices have come down considerably for the scanning and printing of archival quality reproductions. As a result, the cost to consumers has come down as well, making this a much more affordable option for many buyers who like what they see, but are not in a position to buy the original.

For my part in this endeavour...
My current gallery portfolio has an approximate retail value of $16,000 - $25,000, at current direct selling prices. Gallery prices average about 50% more. Prices will rise with sales, so I am committed to increasing the value and volume of my portfolio. I will put in the hours and effort at shows. I will sit the Gallery showings. I will produce quality work, and continue to grow my skills. I will strive to increase my market presence. I will use my 30 years in printing and marketing to take advantage of conventional methods for promotion, and will keep an eye out for other, less conventional methods that show signs of life.

Finally, I will continue to strive to embody man's sense of place on earth through my work. To provide a place of inner peace that people seek. I will embody the true soul of Neo-Romanticism; to move people to a better place through the journey within the art. The world is a better place through art - even if only for moments at a time.

Thank you for considering investing in the future of my work.
