I'd put this up in the marketplace sub-forum and auction it, you can just have people posting their prices up like here :D

Don't really see it being worth more than 50$, but what do I know, I'm not really much into paintings.

You should find a more suitable forum to ask though, don't think many here know anything about paintings.

Maybe from $50 to $150. It depends on the person really, everyone can discern something different than other do.

It depends really. For someone this painting could be worth almost nothing. For someone else a lot. It is some unknown painting to be honest, and it is worth less than copy of famous artist you can buy at Ikea.

If you find someone who really likes it you may get much more. The thing with art is that the price range can be enormous. A simple sketch can be worth $100000, while a large painting, that took a month to make can go for $500.

I like this painting but I've got no idea how much it can be worth. What do I know is that the value of painting can be much much higher if the author is dead. Not that I'm suggesting anything here ;)

It depends on which gallery you sell it in. There is a market for this size with this genre, but I would say you can't go too high with 18x18. If you are well known in your community, you can sell it above $150. If not, should aim for $100 and I would personally never go lower than $40.

Not more than 200 usd or so
It's nice but a little naive in style, not unreasonably given that your wife is a hobbyist

 I don't think so. I think there is to much effort for $5, It's worth more really. $50-$100 and +. Like guy said before etsy.com is very popular and great place to sell any kind of hand crafts that you make.

Nice painting.
Do you have more ?
Maybe we can establish an accurate value based on them.

Is this person a popular painter?

It's a nice little painting, but maybe put it up for auction in the marketplace and see what you get. You can start the bidding off at a price you're happy with and hope for the best.

200$ if you find the right buyer; more if you sell a concept or something else with it ;)

I say $5
$5 is to low as a price.If you don't like the painting at least you should appreciate the work and the time spend to create it.

I think its matter of the persons appreciation of art, like you mentioned.

Atleast he/she threw an offer, it may not be a good one, but still an offer. They may not like it, but who cares the person got a ton of offers already at idea price range.

Maybe try to first gain some fame, or do something that get people attention. Then your painting will be worth thousands of dollars. I am not joking here, we all know that paintings of dead artists are the most expensive paintings.

Yeah, maybe try painting in some unorthodox way  and then post that on the Internet ;) Although it seem silly some people actually do this kind of "painting"

I do like the artwork. I can definitely see talent. I would pay around $100-150 if I were to buy it.  :)

You should start a auction. Minimum starting bid would be $50-$60. You could make a good profit off of that.

David choe - rich painter look him up, before his facebook stock days.

You want an art dealer to bet on your wife's painting and show them everywhere it matters or you want the art to be seen as much as possible by your own means


Title: Re: How much does this painting worth?
Post by: cech4204a on June 19, 2014, 05:56:33 AM
I'd give 60$ if i was interested in buying painting for someone as gift. But i guess you can put it on auction maybe on Ebay or something. 


Title: Re: How much does this painting worth?
Post by: estong on June 19, 2014, 05:58:24 AM
for me it would cost $50.00


Title: Re: How much does this painting worth?
Post by: Nobitcoin on June 19, 2014, 09:44:18 AM
I would pay roughly $20 for it if I was gonna buy it but not really something I would buy.


Title: Re: How much does this painting worth?
Post by: newflesh on June 19, 2014, 11:23:20 AM
It's a nice painting, your wifes very talented. Think I'd pay around $80 - $100.

You could try selling paintings on Ebay, established artists on there can get up to $500 for abstract/modern paintings.
