Text of the page (random words):
rk is not online i t appeared to me that a significant number of members had no sales including artists who have sold regularly in the past however i can only be certain about that for those artists who had all their artworks online and not all did pricing sales lessons for art societies and galleries clearly there s a lot of artists who need an education on pricing for exhibitions at the mall galleries and that notion may well include art society members as well as non members i think there s a case for art societies to act more like the david shepherd foundation s wildlife artist of the year exhibition that exhibition aims to raise funds for charity conservation of wild animals consequently it also aims to maximise sales it therefore reserves the right to suggest an artist revises their price to make it more likely to sell as i understand it the way it works is if the artist won t budge then the artwork may not be exhibited i d suggest serious consideration is given by fba societies to the introduction of an extra filter i e is the price realistic when selecting artwork for an open exhibition and the society should challenge artists as to whether this is a price they have achieved in the past introducing a price check for realism may net more sales and more commission even if the artworks are priced lower after all an over priced artwork that does not sell is a net loss to a gallery which loses on commission through no sale and the opportunity cost of selling other artwork which might well sell an art society which wants to help artists in general to do well an artist who has paid for transport framing etc an artist s career it s all very well seeing selection for a national art society exhibition as a pathway to getting a gallery but all galleries are interested in after they have assessed whether your art makes the grade fills a gap is whether or not you are already generating sales i e are people interested in your work when it is realistically priced pricing to sell is a really good strategy for a long term career in terms of overall sales i think the mall galleries could promote the own art scheme better the majority of those attending exhibitions are people who want to buy art if it is affordable i think if more people realised they could buy art for 10 equal payments then more people would buy art pricing how to price art on my art business info website includes the following topics how important is price when buying art find out how important prices is to those buying art options for pricing art how to avoid pricing art

artists with a name in the end credits of home is where the art is episodes 6 10 it follows on from my previous two posts home is where the art is needs a makeover in which i highlighted my concern about the absence of any name credit in text in the programme explain why it should be mandatory that all participants who are professional artists get a named credit commission an artist home is where the art is episodes 1 5 my attempt to redress the balance i ve worked out what the credits in the end credits of each programme are about they all seem to relate to all the other professional artists whose artwork is on the walls of the homes of the buyer ironic or what i m actually quite getting into it as a programme in part because it offers a real insight into the reasons why people commission artwork however i m not getting any better at guessing which artists the client will pick nor working out why they love artwork which i think is awful that said there is some excellent artwork on last week s programmes but not all of it ended up in the clients homes commission an artist episodes 6 10 this is how the bbc describes the programme home is where the art is is inspired by the real world trend of commissioning artwork rather than spending money on off the shelf pieces from the high street this series will show how accessible and easy it is to commission local artists to

of the year 2019 last night duncan shoosmith won the final of sky arts portrait artist of the year 2019 paintings in the competition by duncan shoosmith left to right self portrait jodie comer laura linney in the final courtney pine dame cleo laine commission for the final the final was actually held at the national portrait gallery on 13th june 2018 this was the day after the announcement of the bp portrait award which is how come i noticed the judges were in the building the next day as the winner and i went to use the lifts to find a quiet place for an interview after the interview and lunch i went in search of where they were filming the final and my first guess turned out to be correct you can see the photos i took in an album on my facebook page sky arts portrait artist of the year 2019 final of which more later this post contains commentary on the themes of the final observations on the finals process points you in the direction of pictures of what the final actually looks like from the artists perspective where to read more if you re interested in applying in future years the prize for winning the competition is a 10 000 commission this year the commission was to paint tom jones for the national museum of wales so a not insignificant prize and a not insignificant sitter to paint for posterity the three finalists sara tom and duncan outside the national portrait gallery doing their walk for the camera the three finalists were sara lavelle twitter instagram video foundation diploma in art and design distinction at falmouth university and then went on to study illustration ba hons at the university of brighton and got a first class degree as a final year graduate she had only recently taken up painting now based in london tom mead facebook instagram video always nice to see a website which includes evidence that the artist goes to life class and can draw from life currently doing a ba degree in painting at the university of arts wimbledon he creates paintings with a multifaceted perspective on individuals which suggest movement loves to paint in acrylic these are tom s paintings in the competition duncan shoosmith facebook twitter instagram video based in wiltshire combines painting at home in his garage with looking after his three young children he does great portraits of kids if you take a look at his website one of the themes within the programme was of the old professional versus the two young cubs metaphorically snapping at his heels or as someone put it youth ganging up on old age it s certainly the case that the only painter who was professional or had any experience was duncan shoosmith after last year s final one might have taken this to mean that he could be written off and that youth and innovation would win through comments from the judges at the beginning suggested that what they particularly liked about these three portrait painters is that they all come at portraiture from their own unique angle duncan has his own bold and structural way of painting based on intense observation from life tom has a unique and fragmented style which suggests movement sara paints without a plan and finds her way to the end image and has a luminous way of painting skin they were very pleased with the three they had chosen observations one of the themes within the programme concerned the stress and nervous energy associated with a final the suggestion from the judges was that the artists live off their nerves and that this is a good thing from the comments of the artists they recognised that nerves were natural in the context of the final but that they d prefer if they felt a bit more relaxed this was the set up for the final you may just be able to spot the olive green chair for the sitter
