I have long wished to sell on eBay; so far my expertise has been only
related to buying and selling back videos, DVDs, clippings and
magazines and the likes (pretty much the same as everyone else!). I
have been told countless times that the way to achieve this goal was
to put whatever talent one has and sell oneself with it. My talent
lies with portrait art; in charcoal and in oil painting. My favorite
subjects are celebrities. What I lack is confindence, and information
as to what people are interested in; why should someone want a genuine
artwork of a celebrity made by an unknown artist when they can simply
print a photo?


Is this a thinkable, in any way profitable venture? If yes, what are
the key points in making it work?

My wife would simply die if I gave her a 20x24 oil of Vin Diesel. She
can't be the only one. Go for it!
