This is not a mantra , and the need for objectivity , but it is difficult to understand , it is easier to collect non-existent gossip, and boast existent masterpieces.

I'm not in vogue. For fashion to work for everything and Minotepa and assent of the COP.

The criterion of successful sales. You can pick a different assessment tool. The total number of works sold to written (%). Very informative criterion.
There are artists based on sales of rare works with a high price.
You write, "How can you estimate the cost of painting?" - Just .. based on the spent material: canvas, paint brush, etc., except mental costs. I think you meant, how to form a picture of the price ..

This is not the case. Market artist realizes 99%of manufactured goods. This figure is there for hundreds of years. When working "to order" there is a problem of manufacturing "individual" order when the work done is not the customer buys. That is 1%and is the work.
 Only in the beginning can be in the top ten works of a few unsold works.
 This requirement and the tax authorities, and the requirements of the cost of materials and the cost of living. Previously, the tax authorities could be attributed to the materials 40%of revenue. Now we have to focus on writing off 10-20%of income, otherwise the work will not be profitable.
Hence the high demands on the ability to conduct marketing analysis, to comply with the requirements of painting technology.
The level of domestic gallery owners typically do not allow them to raise the artist from his entry-level, so the primary effort should be made by the artist.
And all the problems at once the artist promise to solve just crooks.
In practice, is a phased upgrade from level to level. Well if the artist will work as an apprentice at the market held the artist.

Here, under the " market artist " means the artist from the market, from the market , with the fair, with the underground, from the street : " Flown, hurry , buy paintings ". <! - ~ 7 ~ ->

Artoil-A, Tax ....) )) This is so scary guys who can come in and prevent paint ( poetry , music, book ) ? ) Up to a certain amount in the account ( major purchases , money transfers ) the tax man is not interested at all , not every artist can earn the same amount . But if the artist does not pay taxes ... He allegedly unemployed? And it's a lot of inconvenience ) Just like artists get Schengen visa? <! - ~ 7 ~ -> pension, social. services and m ...

KS - this opinion exists among the guards of the market, I 've even heard from them that the work of art is easy : " Brush up and down ... " . And if you omillionittsa in the pictures ?
see:

No, this gentle girly ...
But there are terrible neighbors who have developed the seventh sense - the sense of money
 someone else's wallet. They will write you at night is cut gold bars and listen to the sound of
German gold ( golden section and the " Das Rheingold ." And you will go to the delegation.
So consider that the tax will be interested first ruble ...
By the way, I wrote , why legality, but not a crime ...

Dear Artoil-A, I'm asking you a question and you write, "It is not so much" .. (?)
You have a very unique evaluation and reasoning, I find it hard to understand what you write .. on the taxman with market research and painting technology with scammers.
If you want to discuss pricing, let us consider this particular aspect .. and then sequentially other.
Thank you.

I went in, looked at it. 've Seen it, but was not in albums and so forth . It's a la Italiano revival compilation. Especially liked Tanya - people with copies of photos and do not know how to draw . Amateur level . Piastres , piastres .

Would you really be silent about the compilation - you compile all.

" Why do you picture these dirty ." Are you talking about .. the high and picturesque , or about your experience in the production of pies ?
You want to have praised for sharpness <! - ~ 1 ~ -> ) . You know very well , the mood is different ..

I do not need to praise better tell seriously on pricing in the painting.
Paintings are made of canvas , not always clean , paint is also not a gift and kerosene or turpentine worse .
On the contrary pies was the story - one pastry chef in Paris, gave up his business and began to sell paintings. He had an argument.

I know nothing .. is engaged in a dedicated detective (with a unique occasion), and the artists whose "Era of Change" stolen the work and the collection - hundreds of them! Came sledak up a report and departed ..

The last example, you probably have heard it:
"The police of St. Petersburg is looking for about 1,000 paintings by famous artists Bella and Isaac Kaplan-Manevitch abducted on the night of August 1. Appealed to the police director Sergei Avrutin. He told the police that was stolen from his garden a unique collection of paintings, which had come to him by inheritance from his wife. director's wife was the daughter of well-known artists Manevitch-Kaplan.

.. cottage in Repino robbed. He was out from July 13 to 31, and during that time unknown picked up the keys to the locks and delivered more than 1,000 paintings of the artist Bella Manevitch-Kaplan.
In a unique collection of sketches were a legendary Soviet films such as the TV series "Sherlock Holmes," painting "White Sun of the Desert," "The Lady with the Dog," "Three Fat Men" ..
This is not the first kidnapping of a unique collection. In 2012 it was stolen the first time, but then the attackers caught almost immediately. They do not have time to get rid of any one sketch. While there was a consequence, the picture was almost a year in law enforcement and took on the case as evidence. After that, the collection returned rightful owner. However, they are not at home and spent the month. "

According to a rough estimate the value of stolen ~ 50 million rubles.
I looked at the video and the story was quite surprised .. rich enough country house, the windows no grids or ohr.zhalyuzey ..
Made a conclusion, that's what happens when gets the job for free.

All this is discussed in this section .... Read . Go wrong - will be costly , but not fatal.
