It's hard to say why one artist's work goes for much more money than another's (other than quality, of course). There are two reasons I can think of: marketing and demographics.
The first thing I would do if I were you, Patt, is to market your work in the places where people who have a fair bit of money can be found. See if you can get your work in front of the people who stay at that five-star resort.
Next, market yourself strongly in the nearest large city where there is some wealth. Donate to expensive private school auctions in that big city. Display your paintings in frame shops and libraries in upscale neighborhoods there, etc etc. It may mean a couple of trips a year but can make a big difference in your sales.
