Hi,
Yes, the websites are wonderful maybe someday I will get brave enough to do one or find the time. I really enjoyed looking at yours.
Dotsie you asked a good question about doing art fairs as opposed to gift shops. At the art fairs you are in direct contact with the public and can take orders. Gift shops and galleries are good also because then you can stay home and do the work. They make the contacts and sell for you.
The gift shops and galleries do take a good percentage usually but if its worth it then you stay with them. The fairs sometimes introduce you to new shops and galleries. It is about half business/half art when you do this.
