Re: Self Portraits
Again, I'm uneasy about discussing the business side here, but here goes:
We know that the originals are too expensive for many people who would love to own her work, but the prices are already at the very lower end of the market for original oil-on-canvas.
We have talked and talked about starting to produce limited edition prints of some of her most popular works. We have a fine art printer who will work with us to produce giclée prints on canvas. These prints look very much like an oil painting, but are produced on specialized printers that will print a thick layer of ink that reproduces the effect of oil paint brushstrokes.
If anyone is interested, PM me and we can discuss. Typical prices for a limited edition print would be ~1/3 of the price of an original, so Ali's portraits would be ~$250, and her much larger tree series would be ~$650.
OK, that's the one and only time I'm going to talk about selling art on here. If anyone has questions about prints or originals, please go ahead and PM me!

You're all so wonderful about Ali's art! It makes her incredibly happy that so many people love her work.

Re: Self Portraits
We would have them produced to order - printed locally, hand-stretched on wooden stretchers by Ali, then signed, numbered and varnished by her.
