Wow, nice job!

Good to see an artist around here.

Dirty F · 03-23-2003, 08:43 AM

Not my style BUT very nice!

hybrid · 03-23-2003, 08:45 AM

Very well put together auction page. Proffessionalism serves the yuppies that buy shit like this on e-bay. I sell some of my grandmother's paintings on there sometimes.

If you're interested, I know a gal here in town who does international art authentication. She's a stockbroker by trade, but moved into dealing and authenticating. Very smart woman with a lot of networks. Anyhow, let me know if you have a catalogue, and I can shoot it to her.

DarkJedi · 03-23-2003, 08:54 AM

How do I contact you -- I'm not even sure why authentication is necssary but I got love for stockbrokers...

Since it's not on a stretcher I feel that lowers the value somewhat... Takes away some of the substance... If I wanted to pimp this out myself, I'd get it under glass with a thick wood border. If this painting sold for less than $600, it would be an insult. If you wanted sub-$600 work you are probably looking for a "deal" on a nice reproduction of something that you can't afford... like here you can buy a painted reproduction of Egon Schiele for $280 http://www.art-beat-gallery.net/pain...iningwoman.htm While Egon Schiele is great and famous, everyone has seen the images in the mall... you could never afford an original... Fame is only an important indicator to those that don't have confidence in their own taste. I'll have to work a little bit more on my persona

-- maybe play up my porn industry connections... I'd be like a futuristic Toulouse Lautrec <img src="http://www.ze-card.com/images/toulouse-lautrec/toulouse-lautrec5.jpg"> who painted girls from brothels... the first Moulin Rouge movie is about this artist -- very cool movie... he's in a wheelchair and falls in love with a hooker

The cool thing about art is that some greedy person can't just start painting from photographs and expect to get the same $ per painting that I can -- and you can only feel out your audience so much... It's intangible, but ever since cubism, the pimpin has been passed down through certain artists that carry the pimp torch ever so subtlely... otherwise i'd be painting chicks with giant diamonds and fake tits... but that audience is caught up trying to afford new rims for a used Mercedes

corvette · 03-23-2003, 11:45 AM

Pete, nice work, i am impressed

you are very talented

psyko514 · 03-23-2003, 11:57 AM

I got a stiffy.

boneprone · 03-24-2003, 01:12 AM

Pete, that painting is awsome.

Dude, Ive been tellling you over the past year you need to move here.

Here in Oregon people love shit like this!
More importantly they pay to see shit like this and pay to own shit like this.

Move your ass down here and do what tyou do best and love to do.

You can still do porn on the side of course since Id keep you corrupted in that artform, but dude you really should move here.

hybrid · 03-24-2003, 01:14 AM

Actually, dude, Canada's the best place to independantly sell art, from what I hear. I've got a partner that ran away from home when he was 16, now he's livin off the hog off his art in Toronto.

By the way, F-L-Y, I ICQ'd you about what I posted earlier, but to answer your question, she's a dealer, as well as an authenticator.

Basically, if you got a catalogue together, she would take it, and ty to get certain key galleries display your shit.
