does anyone hang their art up in their house, sell, give away as presents, hang in galleries? i have about 10 prints from a class and i havent gotten around to hanging them up. debating what i want to do for framing as custom frames get expensive.

also if you frame your picture, do you leave the white border or cut it off? i have one i want to frame for sure.

I hang mine in my apartment, and give them as gifts.

Personally, I don't like the white border- I always use a mat.

i frame them, give them as gifts, put them in my house, get them published, try to sell them basically just enjoy them in all ways.

id like to give some away as gifts, but id like to have it at someones house where i frequent so i can check them out once in a while lol. id probably only give one away if someone thinks its awesome, that way its not sitting in their garage or basement.

i figure i can always make another print if i want, that used to be the thing i hated the most about painting, i only had one of them when i was done and never wanted to give it up.

i had 2 pieces in a show last night. sold one
16x24

i dont think id print more than 1 or 2, i just think even personal work loses its value when theres 100 of them.

how much did you sell it for? another thing that sucks about selling stuff is that printing and framing takes half the profit sometimes.
