The Californer/10337285

BAY AREA, Calif. - Californer -- The quintessential question about Art Prices for every living artist in the Universe is...

"If this painting becomes worth hundreds of millions after I die, How much can I get for it NOW?"

The painting is by Robert Barrows of San Mateo, California. In addition to doing painting and sculpture, Barrows is also the President of an advertising agency called R.M. Barrows Advertising and Public Relations.

Barrows is also a writer, a poet, a songwriter and an inventor. His invention is a video tombstone called "The Video Enhanced Gravemarker" (U.S. Patent #7,089,495)

He also wrote a book based on stories told through video tombstones. The book is called "Cemetery of Lies."

You can see more about his advertising agency, his art and the video tombstone at www.barrows.com

Barrows has also done several other paintings about art prices, art auctions and the art market in general.
