Start mentioning asking prices. You aren't competing with any "sponsors" here by showing these. They are fascinating.

If you shy away from posting asking prices here on TubeNet, AT LEAST post asking prices on your OWN website.
Bloke...I guess I didn't want you and the other sponsers to think i was usurping or infringing... I'm here to learn from you guy's!!! sure I'de love to sell or trade some of my work for a BAT CC but I'm a little embarrassed because my prices are high BUT not for the amount of time it takes me to do it!9 years ago a guy owed me money for a wall sculpture and made my web site for me He asked me if I wanted to put any prices and I thought!!......(can you smell the wood a burnin?<s>) If I don't put any prices in... People will "call" and ask...NOT! I don't even know how to get in the site to put my new artwork in and correct some of the spelling errors and Prices!!!...But for you Bloke here are a few...the angle fish is around 3000.00 the eagle right around the same the gold fish 1800 so is the Mugsy fish the Chimpanzee is 4500 and took me three months of 4hours a day to do...By the way right now I'm working on some Tuba and musicle sculptures..Jazz band with over baring Tuba<s> Some of my abstracts go for higher but I have alot of pieces in the 3and 400 range and very much jewelry from 20 to 50 for custume belt buckles...I guess with my prices,.... you can see why I don't mention them.... I don't want someone to say Boy is that high.!!!and not worth the prices....plus like I said I love sharing these with you all and I'm here to learn at least some things since I play alone... Thank you again Bloke for liking my work ...your friend in Music, art and tubas......BB

Bob,

Your works are stunning, and very reasonably priced! As mentioned, you'd do far better with a little bit of work on your website, and some advertisement.

Have you ever tried other selling avenues? eBay? Amazon? Various Art forums that surely must exist? Your pieces are very original, and obviously well made. I'm sure that they'd be well recieved by upscale clientel. Just need to figure out how to reach them...

Keep up the excellent work, and I know you'll have that dram BAT soon enough!
