Debra,

These are the examples of figurative paintings that came to mind. They are from a great book by Carole Katchen called "Painting with Passion."

Both of these examples show interaction between people, and neither are interested in likeness. Because of the generic treatment of the people they would probably have a broader appeal for the gallery buyer.

With your expressive style and sense of color you could be a real presence in a gallery with these types of paintings.

The first is by William Vrscak, watercolor 15x22.
