That's a good point Michele; that's another thing that I've been wondering about as well. I haven't really seen too many traverse the two ends too often so I have a hard time finding those that can provide some personal experiences with it.

I've seen other markets do well with being able to sell to a broad group of people by having an economy version and a luxury version of their product. My question would be, does that prove true in portraiture as well?

Regarding the lower priced artwork, do you think that it would be more acceptable to sell them as sketches in a different medium instead of just smaller, lower quality artworks while still being seen in a positive, high quality artist light? Would you consider a small oil or charcoal sketch as something that would be seen by others as an equivalent to the high end finished paintings?

This thread has given me a lot to think about.
