I really love this painting, this was the one that felt like i had finally found my style or voice or something.  Also its just nice to have on my wall.  On the other hand id kind of like to start selling my paintings both online and in my hometown.  i forget the exact dimensions but its something like 30x40 or maybe a bit larger.  Acrylics and texture paste, ready to hang.

The real problem is deciding on a price.  My first piece sold to my landlord who took $50 off my rent that month haha.  My second piece was sold for $100, altho i suspect the buyer was unhappy with the frame.  I checked google shopping for prices of abstract expressionist paintings and they range $100 to $1300, but the average is probably $250.

Dont worry about the frame. I got a wooden one from walmart for 20 dollars that fits it perfectly.

I suggest finding/ making more you would want to sell. then find a local art gallery that will showcase and sell your work. Art snobs will pay almost anything for any sort of art, as long as its expensive, just so they can say "I bought that for ____.___$." and their friends will be in awe.
