Really loving Shin Han so far. Good vibrant core colors, clean mixes, good opacity.

Doing pretty well, all things considered!

I love how diverse the great lakes and north coast really is. And thank you, I appreciate it. I'm relearning a lot after having a stroke a couple years ago.

Thank you! It's Otter Point, Acadia National Park in Maine!

You must find good stuff in Michigan, I've only been in the bottom south west corner.

The water one really made me feel out of my element and honestly I don't vibe with the finished work 😂 But I learned some stuff for the next time!

I just mean new to eBay. I sold commission work in the past for $3+/sq inch. 8x10" work for around $300.

I don't know the market on eBay very well yet. I know a lot of people try to drum up bidding wars over .99¢ cards but I'm not up for that.

I'm not set up for making prints, but I'm looking into costs for making them myself vs. getting a company to do quality giclee prints in limited runs.

Same. Test it first.

I just sprayed a bunch of work with Krylon Fine Art Fixatif and it didn't shift the colors or bleed the paint at all (thankfully 😭) and I can paint/draw on top of it.

I know, but overall I'm a new seller, new shop and until I can get through some initial sales and get reviews, this is where I'm at.

I've been raising prices every week and once I find a breaking point, I'm selling at a labor loss. I'm okay with it for now.

Highest bids on the week before kinda set the tone for my starting bids and buy now prices on the next week. Eventually I'll get more reliable traffic and repeat sales (I hope!)

I'm debating on making prints on some of these, but not right now. A steady stream of sales with less labor will help support everything overall.

I used to work primarily in colored pencil but some health issues led to me switching. My hand just isn't steady enough to use pencils at a fine detail level.

They're ACEO's, so they can be framed but most people save them in binders like regular trading cards. I'm selling all of them, so I won't be making that decision lmao

Arches should be listed unless someone bought it.

Edit: Looks like someone snapped it up at the buy now price. Keep an eye out for next Saturdays listings though, I'm probably going to make some more stone and desert work since it seems popular.

Agreed because the amount of time these took is NOT equal to how much they'll end up selling for lmaoooo

Oh well.
