I'm replying to @aggroed on this here separate comment because it's very very important. I'm going to be blunt because THIS is the kind of thinking that stops careers from ever getting off the ground, I've seen it hundreds, if not thousands of times...literally...and I know what the word literally means, and I mean literally. I'm not trying to beat up on the guy, but this is a teachable moment here for many of you...He says-

One thing that's allowed here is printing more than one edition. So, what's likely happening is that an artist is valuing their time at 10 x 20 Hive. So, more like 200 hive total.

I really like who there's more than one edition allowed, or just the 1 if that's preferred. I feel like the artist can still value their work to the same degree, but spread it out over a number of people. So, the artist isn't counting a whale benefactor, but can diversity their collector audience an not worry that a minority of whales stop collecting their work.

I don't know if he knows who I am, or if you do. But I have worked in the creative industry a long time, weathered a lot of storms overcome a lot of adversity. I've worked on Mad Magazine, The Tick, wrote for Comedy Central, have had work published on four continents, nominated for the highest awards...this thinking will prevent you form having a career. PERIOD. I have seen very talented people, undervalue themselves and thus prevented themselves from being taken seriously and they never got anywhere, and stopped. I have seen it OVER AND OVER AND OVER without fail.

Your work has value, that value does not diminish simply because it is mass produced, or in this case minted in many editions, to the point of only being worth the cost of a candy bar. People see that you only think it's worth the cost of a candy bar...they are not going to think further than that to "oh well it's 1 of 20 so..." they are going to see it's 2.00 and see someone else's for 50.00 and assume that person's work is of higher demand and more value.

This is how it works. This is reality. This is human nature. It may not be logical, it may not be fair.

Do NOT spread the value of your work out over the number of editions. That is NOT how you get anywhere...it sounds good, and on first thought seems like it'll work. It does NOT. I've seen this tried OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER. It makes you and your work seem cheap and valueless. The logic put forth here ENDS PEOPLES CHANCES OF HAVING A CAREER.

PAY ATTENTION TO THIS NEXT PART.....

People are going to like your work or they are not. If they do, they will pay you a fair amount, and if they do not they will not buy it for even 5 cents. Undervaluing your work ONLY serves the purpose of not getting the fair amount from people who would happily pay you for it, AND turns off people who are looking for legit art to buy from legit artists...it will make more people overlook you and your work because you are not taking yourself seriously, not declaring that what you do has value.

I cannot stress enough...how many talented people have gone that route and ended up never getting anywhere.

Should you come right out of the box and ask 10,000 for a piece that is 1 of 200. No, but even that, absurd though it may be, is better than doing the opposite and asking for only 2.00. Would aggroed extrapolate his thinking to charging 50 cents for a 1 of 80? of course not ( did I do the math right?...whatever you get the idea)

What you do has value, the x-factor is people finding it who appreciate it. Lowering the cost does not aid in that, it only generates less $ from the people who find you.

...I'm beginning to cross into territory of giving you more advice that you should get for free, I'll just say... that this notion of "well if I sell it extra cheap more people will buy it and more people will see it and blah blah blah" no...that's not how it works. Because they are seeing it was 2.00 and all the xposure you get is just an advertisement of your work being only worth 2.00. And you will have created that impression of your work and who you are that you will not be able to shake off. and that leaves your long term prospects a barren wasteland.

NOW...you can take my advice here...or not. It's not going to hurt me if you fail, one less person to compete with. But just in case you want to make sure the person giving you advice knows what they are talking about...my bio is here (link below). The bio is long and respectable, and it would not exist if I didn't take myself and my work seriously right from the start.
