I am going to use these stats for some upcoming non profit informal meetings within our community. Guess it is not unusual then for my continuing with the Artist's Way and daily painting to think of my cancelled class in community education watercolor as the norm in these economic times.

What a lot of work this was for you! I'm hoping to be your 21st person in your 1.8% this year or next. For those who are trying to make more $, you need to figure out where you fit in with the market. For example, are you trying to sell a lot of work at lower prices in markets that can move mass or are you holding on for the higher prices sales? Knowing which business strategy you want to take is key because it gives you a focus. Alyson, Thank you for compiling these amazing numbers. What a lot of work this was for you!

Thank you for the work you put in for us. It would be interesting to survey WHERE the artists are and where they show and sell who are doing well. You know, does location have anything to do with it.
