in Russia - not dozens, hundreds of collectors!

It's wonderful that there are, who support the arts, culture in general. Maybe we have an underground <!--~ ~-->, but we just do not know.

Here and learn how to distinguish between the collectors of the collectors (

Frankly, I think that artists really are respected, as to one or the other, and just to buyers of works of art. Otherwise, it would be - themselves not to care a dime. It is unlikely that collectors are born, as in any other case. There is always a period of growth

March, I looked at your profile and website, and then realized that you - the artist. However, as I thought based on your message. If you have not met kolektsionery gatherers or simply wholesale customers, it may be three reasons:

1) The reason most unpleasant for the vanity of the artist: the artist is uninteresting to others. In rare cases, hidden talents, ahead of time, this neglect is usually said from the banal absence abilities.

2) Artist misjudged the gallery, works with, or improperly sold the painting itself. For example, instead of a serious picture, he put his work in art galleries, originally aimed at the retail sale of artistic souvenirs and gifts. From there take the collectors-gatherers? Serious gallery - this is not necessarily "Garage" or something else super-expensive. I think that is a gallery or even a small porch, where like artists and are able to understand them. Such galleries are not so many, especially outside big cities like Moscow, St. Petersburg ....

3) I understand that you live in Belarus. I am familiar with several artists from Vitebsk, which periodically bring me their work. So I understand that the art market in your country is very poorly developed. Well, or perhaps just better than the USSR. And then, not a fact - not a big state order. So, for you and your colleagues can sell only work in Europe or in Russia. In Russia closer to drive, easier and cheaper. We'll quickly appreciate and love. After the buyer likes your local artists, as better than they know. And foreign artists unknown to the buyer is always something like a strange exotic.

March, looking at your work, I came to the conclusion that var. 1 - is not about you. Actually, I see that in Belarus a sufficiently strong and interesting art school. Your work bright and spectacular, large enough. The impression of theatricality. You are not in the theater work? In the very least, they should be fine bought for interiors. I can not judge them completely, without seeing the originals, but I hope that they have and artistic merit - it seemed to me for a photo. Show me with your overall site seemed very interesting work Davidovich (a).

I am ready to consider buying and serious bargain. If you are interested, please send me a personal e-mail prices.

About the galleries an important point (especially with globalization, when almost everyone has a website)
The most understanding (mind) nevozmzhno, I rely only on intuition and on the case ..

I personally just recently mastered (very least) and no-PC and simply head is spinning .. (And if you also take into account national and mental characteristics?-Just little time left ... Plus another hudozhesvennaya social life (the West) is incredibly bureaucratic (I can only think so, no connections and acquaintances, beginning with zero)
And to be able to express themselves millet must-(need to force myself) ..
The hardest thing is to correlate possible and desirable.
Even such a simple phrase: "Being on demand" can be interpreted very differently ..

Having thought about the concept of "good sale".
I want to ask the distinguished audience: Are there any specific criteria for determining success selling out?
This is how much, how much, how often and where?
Share, please considerations.

A specific criteria to be most likely can not. What to measure something ? ROI As sprat in banks? 50%bush - perfect for 150%- so do super ? "Not suitable means such an assessment. How can we evaluate the cost of painting?
Measure the amount? So, again the same. For some, and a picture of the month - is already a success, but someone 15 - little ... And then five years later the man who sold a month, selling 15. So then, 5 years ago with one picture - it was a successful sale or not?
You can also estimate the probability of those lacking it to life with the sales. But here, everyone has different criteria, depending on who he loves the bread smeared ...
So most probably the correct assessment would be purely personal, just at this time to a particular sale.

NATA NOVA, the question is good, but too shirokiy.Dlya someone indicator will AI.Lichno rating for the artist is individualno.Na same level of sales can be a lot (and cheap) at the other little (and expensive). Here is how to accurately formulate ...?

[NATA NOVA]

Net "earnings" in the year (net of taxes. Costs, etc.)

[Seriy]

from 50 thousand dollars a year and above-"sells well" for the beginner artist.

[MrVitt]

Again, though, is very subjective ...

Nata, my view - if you have enough to live, then - well sold. If the creaking, so long as bad, something must be done. And what outsiders think about your /our sales - it is their difficulty
