"Hi Kimberly:  They weigh about 14lbs. No special tools required. In my opinion they are more durable than propanels. See my new ad just posted."

I'm getting ready to do my first show of the 2011 season and just wondered if any other oil painters could tell me how their print sales have been this year. I'm thinking of getting 5 x 7 prints that I'll double mat to fit an 8 x 10 frame (I'm not planning to frame them, just put in clear bags.) I've never done this small size before, but am thinking I need to offer some lower priced items to help cover my expenses. Any feedback on your best selling size and price point would be greatly…See More

Did any painters do this show last year? I'm considering applying but have had horrible sales this fall and didn't even make expenses at two shows. Just wondering what sales are normally like at this show. Can you make a profit with travel expenses? I'm coming from Greenville, SC.


I actually have four oil paintings I did that are from our vacation in Cedar…
