It makes sense if you think about it, though a bit counter-intuitive.A print, even in edition of 200, generates interest, and a sales history; if that artist's print 110/200 last sold for $200, then that is what your 90/200 is worth.  But an original painting, there's only one, often no sales history, no general community interest.  Might sell for considerably less. (Depends on the artist though; you're not going to get an original Robert Davidson or Susan Point painting for $200; and for those artists, originals go for more than prints.)On the other hand, Francis Dick did a print edition based on a drum she'd made, and i have the original drum the print was based on; I consider that drum to be worth more than the prints; and it has lovely metallic paint when seen in person; is traditional but also goes beyond the tradition.But maybe that's just my opinion.Here's the print, woman (or possibly a crying Tsonokwa) and butterfly: [ATTACH=full]319371[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
