I would describe this as Minimalist New Age artwork. I know little
about the marketing of art, so I can't guess to whom it might appeal.

I'm also an artist and I agree with Pinkfreud's description of the
paintings. I immediately liked the paintings because of the
simplicity, uncluttered and soothing character each one projects.
Personally I think these paintings will appeal to: people of calm
disposition; those who are decent and respectable; romantic and
sensitive people; adults in their later years; people who live
peaceful lives; and of course, the natural art lovers - regardless of
age.

Hello,

I browsed your paintings and found them beautiful in their simplicty,
having a "back to nature" feel, and colors that soothed my tired eyes.
 I'm also an artist, and have bookmarked your site as one I'd like to
visit again and again.

As for who what types of people the art will appeal to, I'd have to
say anyone who can appreciate good taste.  I personally see no age
limitations whether young or older.

Zen seaviews, very appealing to the contemplative spirit.  Minimalist
applies as well.  I particually enjoy "Et in Arcadia Ego" and my
imagination fills in sights and sounds from earth and sky.  I can even
hear the the lapping of the waves.  If I was wealthy, I would own a
few of these paintings.  They promote calm.

If you are looking for "work profile" suggestion to be created as
accompanying text for potential buyers, I will be happy to address a
question to compose examples for you based on my enjoyment of your
work.

Hi,

As one who spent ten years as an art dealer, I find myself generally
in agreement with the comments already posted, but I think there's a
very obvious target market that hasn't been mentioned. Interior
designers make their living by (among other things) manipulating
colors within a space. Because this work is so color oriented (in
addition to being relaxing and non-controversial, which is frequently
mandatory, especially in commercial settings) designers are very
likely to be interested in putting pieces like this in front of their
clients.

If you're looking for marketing advice, I'd recommend seeking out
individual interior designers, especially those who specialize in
commercial spaces, and also galleries who do a lot of business with
such designers (those galleries are always on the lookout for
something new that will get their ID clients excited).

H2,

I love your stuff.  I have no art background, except for being an
"avid visualist", i.e. I judge art purely on what it does to me
visually.

Given that this highly appeals to me (one little data point), I'll
describe me:
Demographics:
F; 30-40; highly educated; engineer/business type; top 5% on economic
scales
Tendencies
feminine; precise/analytical; full of boudaries; very balanced in
introversion, extroversion; value simplicity (low materialism); prefer
modernity over traditions; risk-averse; open-minded (within my very
well-defined and acceptable world)

I hope that helps,

H2,

1) I just read everyone's comments, and it's increadible how accurate
they tend to be as it relates to me.
2) I am a very esthetically choosy visualist. I love going to all
types of museums, but usually, less than 10% of the stuff appeals to
me at all, and less that 1% inspires me (visually).
