It's the name. People want to own big name items. I remember when I first started doing art shows with my paintings and drawings. I was often asked if I was 'Somebody'.

I've walked through one of his galleries and I must say his photos are amazing but they are definitely not priced for everyone.

Wow, people would really ask you that? That's kind of rude I think.

Well at least it's a better image than the one of the Rhine river that previously led the field.

My brothers mother-in-law is an artist - paintings and sculptures. Sometimes I think she is from a different planet ;)
She is very honest, direct and forceful. She doesn't consider questions pertaining to status as rude as she likes help new artists get recognition. Going to art shows with her and mixing with the other artists, I have found most of them, in her circle, to be the same way.

I thought it was. I usually exhibited with other more well known artists and until I established my reputation I expected it. I used to say "Yes I am. I have work all over the US, in England, Germany, Japan and Australia." That usually got the ball rolling.
