Born of Fire (painting for sale)

[veers0r]

75$ is to cheap in my opinion but nice painting anyway. :)

[TruthSurge]

Yeah, all my artist friends say that but strangely, I still have the paintings! hahaha thanks!

This is not why i subbed you Truthsurge... but it is why i am unsubbing you.

[TruthSurge]

Well, I am sorry I've been busy trying to keep my house and survive. I posted this here just so anyone of my 1000 subs could check out the paintings on my other channel IF they wanted to. But feel free to unsubscribe. I've unsubscribed to one person so far but only because he did 5 response vids a day and always attacked my comments even when they weren't really critiques of anything. Then he accused me of stuff I never said. But hate to see you go.

I always wondered why people feel the need to announce their departure from someone's channel like that. Seems a bit pretentious to me.

[TruthSurge]

Maybe they feel bad and want me to talk them out of it. Or maybe that it will spur me on to do more religious vids. I routinely don't watch my subs' vids due to time constraints or content I don't care about.  so... just decide. I'd love to have $ coming in free so I could just sit around all day and make vids but ... I don't. :(

I think it's reasonable to sell your artwork on your channel. It's not like you're begging for money for nothing, you're offering a product. I would love to buy a painting if I had the money but cash has been tight for me as well. Anyway, good luck.

[TruthSurge]

Thanks. I think it's reasonable for me to put ONE vid up here to let my subs know I'll be adding more to my other channel IF they are interested. After all, it is MY channel, isn't it? :)

[artemisfair]

Absolutely. Maybe you should do an auction for them to see what they'll go for.

[TruthSurge]

I'm always scared of auctions because if one person bids only then you sell your stuff for like a dollar. hahaha Anyway.... I don't know. I'm just going to keep painting t-shirts and trying to find more voice over work. Just did 10 characters in a game by two Russian guys. Hidden object game. So, das it.

[artemisfair]

Well, there is a feature on eBay where you can start the bidding somewhere. So, if you think your painting is worth at least $75, then someone can either bid 75.01 or more. If it doesn't get sold, you only lose like a dollar or two for creating the listing.

You're much better at painting than I am. I only paint stuff from nature and they always turn out semi-cartoonish. I'm taking a sculpting class though, and also a poetry workshop.

[TruthSurge]

I don't draw too well but I can paint okay once the outline is there and if I have a good referencee photo or something to compare with.

Prob with art and ebay is that there are millions of people trying to sell their art and not many people buying and that dilutes my chances right there. Just do a search for paintings on ebay. 0 bids. 0 bids. 0 bids. 0 bids. So, I'd be better off taking my $2 and buying lottery tickets. :)

[TruthSurge]

Good luck with your sculpting class. I did that with sculpey b4 I hurt my fingers. it's fun. Then when you're done, you can paint it with... an airbrush!

I wish I had $75 right now.
