Do you think that it is “common” or profitable to create series of 12 to 20 pictures of a certain subject / topic, frame them and rent this to establishments for a period of time?


I’m thinking about restaurants, libraries, banks / offices and more of those kinds of places.

If not common; What do you think of the idea?

    I think this is an interesting concept. I have no idea if it is common. Might not be a rental, but to create the images and share them with the business for a while if you can but a card and price on them for a reprint sale.

    Thanks Jim.

    I think it's a nice concept to have every 3 or 6 months another topic pointed out in your establishment to keep things alive. Banks for instance have a lot of people comming in and frequently the same people. Today the topic is, for example "Souvenir shops", the next time the topic is "Construction sites".

    I know alot of doctors in my area buy photos for their walls from artists who come around with a van full of them umph.gif. But honestly I almost think I should approach him with your idea about some of my photos instead. I mean I can only look at the same faded out photo of twigs so many times before I loose it.
