Need an opinion from some folks who would have a better idea than me at this point of what to charge for a piece of art.

I know at least three of you have seen my dragon print that I did way back in 1991 (Clue, you were there when I inked the little bugger in Carol's Texas apt.).

I have a trucker friend who's interested in buying a print of it to take to a friend as a tattoo pattern. I know he's the type to keep his word when he says he'll destroy the print once the tattoo is on, and not leave a copy for the tattoist to reuse.

Question is...how much should I charge him for the print? And...any other thoughts from the art-selling savvy amoungst you?

But it's art. If the friend could do it his own self, then he would. And it's not "one time use", it's gonna be inked into his flesh forever. You're the tattoo designer, dear. A custom and one-of-a-kind tattoo at that.

OK, $50. But no less! And only if it took you less than two hours to draw.

I don't even remember how long it took. I did it way back in 1991...

Tell him $50 and see what he says. You can always haggle...

True.
