FS: Another MINI painting

Looking to buy some more go fast parts, so I need some money. I painted this last week. It is oil on canvas. 24x21. I would like to get maybe $400(NEGOTIABLE!) OBO.
Thanks!
-Brian

Come on, I know some of you vendors need some MINI art! Why not get a customer with your purchase?

Would anybody be interested in this painting if it were a lower price? or does no one want it?

Personally, I think the painting is way too dark, both in color and tone. The vague outline of a MINI set in such a eerie landscape won't appeal to the average MINI owner.

Good luck with the sale though.

I was afraid of that... Would anyone be interested in commissioning me? I can do some normal drawings, or paintings. Here is an example of a drawing I started but havnt finished due to lack of interest.

I like the painting and would love to commission you for one but the thing is I can't justify spending that much money on a painting.

Don't take that personally...all art is expensive. I just look at paintings and go, why is that worth $400?

I hope someone buys it off of you but you may want to lower the price to attract more people.

I would be willing to lower it... Make me an offer and we will go from there. Dont worry, you wont insult me by offering a lower price.

What would other people like to see? Realism, abstract, designy? I am trying to get a feel for the market. I like go fast parts too!

Hiya, foreverc'd! Another artist, here. I like the unfinished piece, as well. I suggest a series of pencil drawings. The beauty of the drawings is that you are not committed to a particular color...thereby automatically enlarging the market for your work!

Good luck!
