Here are a few pieces under $300 that I’ve come across online. Most of them are pretty small, though that’s hardly surprising. Just the cost of paint and a surface to paint on is fairly high, and especially if a third party is taking a hefty commission it would be hard to make any kind of decent return on a larger work at this price point.
$280: 9×13 Koen Lybaert here
$200: 9×9 Dyanna Dimick here
$293: 14×21 Richard Shipley here
$280: 12×12 Marion Jones here
$131: 16×20 Mo Tuncay here

Thank you for sharing these, Patrick. For me, if I can deconstruct the process, which is what I do for painters’ workshops, I would not feel drawn to a work. Sometimes, I can tell the underpaint colour even when it’s not showing. To be brutally honest, these give me some idea of what I do not want to produce if I were to sell art, which I am not doing at the moment.

Interesting – thanks for the comment. I definitely agree that many of the works available for such a low price point are what I would consider more like ‘production’ pieces than true labors of love. However even if I can understand the process that went into a piece of art, and even if I could easily reproduce it (which I probably can’t!) I find that almost any piece of art tells me something about the artist and gives me something that I didn’t have before.
