Quiz: How many paintings did Van Gogh sell in his lifetime?
Reading: If you are to the point of going into the Art Business or already in business, but like to read more....try out this book. My edition is older (1998) and I don't know if it was ever revised...but I think even the older edition will have valuable information for you.
Crafting as a Business....by Wendy Rosen. It says "Crafting" but it is good for fine arts too. Wendy Rosen is a well known art business person and is very well respected.
"Crafting as a Business covers every aspect of creating a business from the ground up- from pricing to product development. Wendy Rosen writes clearly and authoritatively from a personal and professional experience, relating the information that all would-be professionals need to know."

Viewer Contribution:  
Mel McRobert, from Oregon is sharing his Plein Air Painting. 

He says, "We went camping twice, once in July and once in August. Both times it was overcast, windy, and cold. I did do one small painting and you can see it was socked in. There's still time to go out painting before winter comes in". 
That's the spirit !!!
Thank you...your painting is wonderful.
