Totally marketable.[1] I would put that in my gallery when I open it. Lily will make a fortune!


[1] And you realize, of course, that I speak as a 20-year marketing veteran.
Not even including 17 years in retail.

Lily says it costs 拢118. Not sure where she got that number from, but I'd happily pay it.

My cousin (another artist) is helping me with a scan of it - it's A3 in size so we're doing multiple sections which she'll paste together. A couple of people have asked for prints already!

Augh! All the good artists are getting taken! Well I would have put over $400 on it, but I would also have made it about 30x40 inches.

I really do love it. I'll buy a print! I've decided that my home office will be a gallery, and I especially like having friends' artwork up. Like your black and white photo of pots, some prints that [livejournal.com profile] bloodlossgirl has available on Twitter, and a couple photos of the Minnesota State Fair that another friend of mine shot.

And last night I finally cracked open my new copy of How to Start and Run a Commercial Art Gallery. I'm feeling rather inspired these days!

When I get the final scan I'd be delighted to send you the digital file. :-)

$400 = 拢250 (ish), but I'm guessing you'd be working on commission, so maybe she was just thinking of her take-home.

I'm tickled to be getting a copy of the file! I was telling my mom about it last night as I was explaining my renewed zest to have an art gallery and the picture that re-inpsired me.

I have a lot of cat artwork in my house (yes, I am well on my way to being a crazy cat lady) and I can totally picture Lily's "The Amazing Cat" next one one called "Cat Under Table" by Leo McDowell.

Oh no! When I click on the Dropbox link to the file it says the file has been moved or deleted!
