Take a look at the house of zen mall... i have a small art gallery at the mall there and i have noticed that no one has any intrest in the arts anymore... it makes me sad to watch people walk right by and not notice the art... so please just check out the gallery... its small yes i know but its all i could afford!!

Much Peace and Health

Why the sad face, why not a happy face because you have an art gallery? :D

Greetings Jack,

My lady friend and I purchased a few paintings from your shop. You have great are work friend. I particuarly like the Gas mask painting. I think you need to do a few things in regards to your shop.

First, I think you need to move your shop. It needs to be in the forefront of something not in a back area. If its in the front of something then it can be the first thing someone sees when they walk in. Second, I think you need to raise your prices. Original art is well worth the price of anything the painter decides. It takes time and dedication to make pieces, I know because I'm a painter as well.

If you have the opportunity I'll show you some of my work. Its great to meet other artists. Me and my lady friend are investigating opening a buisness that caters Arts, writing and many other things. When ever we have the plan solid and finalized I'll let you know if your interested.

hmmm... that sound intresting... but the reason im in the back is because i could not afford any places in the front... they cost double what i paid... and the paintings are cheap because no one was buying them!!
But your shop sounds intresting i hopw you gus can do it and do it well!! good luck!!

Much Peace and Health

Haven't been able to log on this morning do haven't seen your place but don't be discouraged by the masses there is a large art community here on SL I know because I have seen some great stuff - We have a new gallery too in Tye Dye Plaza and it is just our zoom on SL. I rarely give advice but I can say I have found this do what you love and you write your own paycheck with joy. If you enjoy doing something the money eventually follows.
