This is beautiful! It actually looks like it's on fire (the subtle yellow flames) and slowly disintegrating, like the way you described. Orchids are my favorite too.

Believe it or not, but I actually fell in love with orchids when I watched the movie Brenda Starr. Haha. It was the strangest flower I've ever seen but so beautiful at the same time. Oh! And speaking of flowers, Happy Valentine's day!

Beautiful work. I love the intensity of the colors of the orchid and the softness of the colors of the background - beautiful mess!

This looks really cool, the vibrancy and the style, and the composition on the page. It really draws your eye up on that diagonal and back down. Too bad for the wrinkle in the paper though.

gromyko In reply to cinny [2006-09-30 02:30:36 +0000 UTC]

Thats not a wrinkle.....its an effect i did in photoshop...so that the flower seems to float in water...Thanks...

I was recently asked by a friend from switzerland asking if i would like to sell Mother and son to her...Shell note me...shes very interested in it...how much would you think i'll sell it?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

jerryh In reply to gromyko [2006-09-30 12:42:56 +0000 UTC]

Price for a piece is often governed by size, backing material (canvas, paper, wood, etc,) medium (paint, chalk, etc). Thes are attributes you may want to include in the descriptions btw.

Sometimes, price is determined by a more abstract perceived "worth", from the artist's perception or the gallery's perception, or the buyer's perception.

And then, sometimes it is what the market will bear and what the buyer can afford. $5000, $500, $50?

But don't sell yourself short. Unless you will starve if you don't sell a piece, it may be better for you if you ask what you truely think it is worth (say $5000) and not sell than to sell it for much less than you know it should get (say $200).

gromyko In reply to jerryh [2006-09-30 12:49:11 +0000 UTC]

thanks for the advice...i was about to tell her $500 but I'll ask you first based on the dimensios, material, and her liking...Its made with a watercolor,high quality paint...9X12 " on cogon paper which is a strong material support... so what do you think of the price? she really loved it...see her reactions on our conversation under the Mother and son...

jerryh In reply to gromyko [2006-09-30 13:08:59 +0000 UTC]

I think your first impulse here is probably something to trust. Asking and getting $500 should not make you feel bad, and it is always good to sell things

gromyko In reply to jerryh [2006-09-30 13:20:24 +0000 UTC]

i think she's trustworthy...but of course i need some guarantee first...hard to transact overseas...do you know at least as a suggestion how the payment should be done...its my first time to do business here(idiotic me...lol)?

jerryh In reply to gromyko [2006-09-30 14:25:12 +0000 UTC]

I am pretty new to this aspect also. I have only sold one thing long distance, and we were both trusting enough to send the product/money before receiving the money/product. I just accepted a check on a US bank. In your case, doing things internationally, I am not sure what to advise. Money Order perhaps? I wonder if something like PayPal is useful for this? I don't know.

jerryh In reply to gromyko [2006-09-30 14:38:04 +0000 UTC]

I have made payments to sellers before using PayPal, but have never received payment that way. Go to [link] and read about it. I am sure that take part of your money for their services, but it might be worth it.
