A quick sketch, the last painting I did for my upcoming show this weekend. I like to include a few studies and sketches in every show, and they go for a much lower amount than the full paintings do. Often a sketch is more spontaneous and shows the process of the artist's thinking, and of testing and experimenting, and can therefore become valuable records of an artist's progress in the future. So even if they are not as carefully planned and painted as a full painting, and may contain errors, the certainly qualify as "affordable art", and if both I and the collector are lucky, it will become precious.

I also include sketches as prelimnary studies displayed together with the painting, if a painting grew out of a sketch. I sell them either separately, or together for a package price. The package is a very nice thing for the collector, who can choose to hang them together and have a cool conversational piece. Or maybe hang the painting at home, and take the sketch to their office, or give the sketch as a present. That is definitely more value for the money, and I like to give that.
