Going for auction or 'make an offer' is a recent Robert Hagan original western oil painting called 'Renegades'. Please view the link to be taken to the ebay page:

... Robert, that's very close to being regarded as an advertisement.

Nice work, though.

I'm going to seek clarification from upstairs.

These sorts of posts are getting a bit tedious.

I'm sorry I thought we were allowed to post such things. I will reframe from doing so now.

I'm actually not sure - since it's your own work. We have a guideline that posts for commercial purposes only are not allowed - it's not clear what applies to selling your own paintings. If you were a Chinese painting factory, I'd delete it in an instant.

On a purely practical note, I should point out that Forum members tend to be art producers, not purchasers.

Cheers

Well I gotta say Robert is commercial and very successful and going by my own sales there are a heap of artists who buy other artists work. Whoda thought? LOL

.. I stand corrected. Smile


Personally, I would love to buy some other artists work, but I have neither the money or the wall space.

I was probably a bit abrupt in my earlier post. BUT, I think there is a difference between self promotion and advertising a particular item that is for sale.... to me that is a strictly commercial endeavour. There have been so many lately that it is becoming irritating.

seems pretty commercial in its intent

dunno if it needs "reframe-ing" , but he can refrain from doing it again

Point taken. I thank Robert for his response - we DO have a section called "Art Market", and we DO permit people to advertise gallery openings, exhibitions etc which are also commercial... so I think at worst Robert's broken a rule we haven't told anybody about.

I hope he continues to post examples of his work.

I'm still awaiting a decision from On High Smile

Cheers
