[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 574143, member: 13090"] I think you would need to define "decent money". I bring in more money than I spend selling framed prints through two local galleries that hang my work but it's not enough to live on by any stretch of the imagination. If you want to go this route you'll need to know how (or learn how) to matte and frame prints because there's no way you'll make money on this if you're paying someone to do that for you. You'll need to find, pay for and maintain gallery space and you'll need to know how to schmooze potential patrons. Bear in mind most people don't have a ton of money to spend on art to begin with and those that do can be difficult to separate from that money. Once you do successfully sell a framed print, most galleries will take 40%. [/QUOTE]
