Hi there;

I have a question concerning folks' experience in arrangements with
galleries who want to show their work - I'm currently considering one, and
I'm inexperienced so advice/suggestions from your experience would be
appreciated. Proposed terms a

- 3 year exclusive on the prints for the gallery. I can do shows with other
work
- 50% of sales to the gallery - I pay for the printing out of my 50%
- gallery owner does the prints (giclee) and framing - prints are editioned
at 25 to 50 prints and 2 proofs - price on prints would be roughly what I
charge now at outdoor shows, but would climb as (if) the edition sells.

The timeframe seems excessive - what I've seen so far rooting through the
web is 30-90 days - typically the duration of the show.

I'd prefer to do the printing myself.

I'm inclined not to go for the offer, but I'm wondering if this is typical
practice.

Thanks
