3. Does your friend usually sell paintings of a similar quality for that much?

6. Not judging her artist talent,
just wondering if she has ever shown in a gallery or if she usually commands that price for her particular work.

7. I realize we don't really know one another
but I'm not sure that could be called fine art. Now that doesn't detract from your liking it or what it means to you. All art is subjective as you can see by visiting the website in my sigline! :)

8. IMHO you should thank your lucky stars
That thing is fugly and is definitely not worth $275.
It might be worth $2.75

10. Save Your Money (Bitchy Content Ahead)
She needs to get a lot better with prespective and the human figure before she can seriously start asking that much. I'm still trying to figure out what kind of joints that leg is supposed to have, and what's going on with the left wing? flange? Is it coming out of her kidney or what?

11. That stinks
but that is a lot of money. I am sure something cheaper, that is just as nice, will come along soon. Keep searching.
