Mike,
This is a fabulous idea and I wish you much success. If you have not already thought of this, may I recommend you take some promotional material in the form of greeting cards.
I have taken photos of every painting ever created and had it developed at Costco at a very reasonable rate. I glued these photos on large, high quality, off white card stock and placed each card with its envelope in a separate plastic protective envelope. Under the photo I handwrote my signature and the title and on the back there is information on how to contact me and visit my website.
I sell these cards at $3 dollars, very affordable when you consider the quality and size. Furthermore I have found that people love to take a card home after they have chatted with me about a work that caught their eye and it acts as a reminder of my work and how to contact me. It has worked wonderfully for me, so may be it will work for you as well.
Good Luck!
