The End Of Summer Poll
By the end of the Summer I’d ended up with 15 paintings that I was proud enough of to frame. I was starting to think about selling them later in the year and has this grand idea about making the prices dependent on how good the paintings were. I had ideas in my head about which ones belonged in the top, middle or bottom baskets but I thought I’d better do some market research.
So I set up a survey on Facebook. People were invited to vote for up to five paintings.
Here are the results. They’re nothing like what I expected. Only four people voted for the Random Nebula but eleven voted for Down T’Mill! I obviously know nothing. And now that the paintings are selling (eight sold at time of writing) I’m finding that what people actually buy doesn’t match up to what either I think is good or the survey thinks is good. It’s impossible to predict people’s tastes.
