How much is a painting by Chan worth?
On average, a "Chen Mao" painted by students can range from $60 - $200 USD.
Here is the complete researched history:
The Chen Mao School of Art began in Beijing, China as a private school that taught many styles of oil painting, watercolor and ink drawings to gifted children and adults.
Chu Yen Lo, one of China's famous artists opened the Chen Mao School of Art in 1955, naming it for his brother-in-law, whom he greatly admired for his drawing and teaching ability. Chen Mao initially contributed to the funding needed to open Chu's, Chen Mao School of Art.
Although Chen Mao did not paint in oil or watercolor, he was a master of pen and ink techniques. Chu Yen Lo developed the techniques of heavily textured oil paint and the use of horse hair for depth, teaching these signature techniques to his students for the next seven years.
Out growing the small space in Beijing, Chu Yen Lo moved the school to a larger space in Hong Kong. Chen Mao, not wishing to move, returned to teaching at the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing. Chu Yen Lo hired three very talented former graduates in Hong Kong with plans of catering to tourists. All students were instructed to signed their work with the school's name "Chen Mao" and began using the Chinese character (in red paint) for the Chen Mao School of Art in the mid-1970s.
With slow sales, Chu Yen Lo shipped over 300 of the student's completed oil paintings to United States and Great Britain to be sold through art dealers and galleries. To fund the additional costs, all the artwork produced by students were sold once completed, inspected and approved.
By the early 1980s, there were thousands of oil paintings in the U.S. market. So many in fact that at-home-art-parties dominated the majority of sales. Prices plummeted. Ready to retire, Chu Yen Lo sold the school to Zhang Yong.
As of October 2016, Chen Mao is living in an assisted living and nursing facility, the Jianghu Zhuangyuan (General's Garden), in Beijing.
Notes: The Chen Mao School of Art did not provide or authorize any "Certificates of Authenticity" (COA) nor did they when selling in bulk to art resellers in the USA and Europe. Any claim of a COA is not authentic because it is unknown which student painted which painting.

First, talk with the client about procedure and regulations you will be following.
Have the client fill out a form of consent for the tattoo for legal reasons. You will need
to see their picture ID, and if they are under 18, you need to see birth certificate and an ID of the Client, as well as the parent, or legal documentation stating the client is emancipated, and an ID.
Talk with the client about the Design they want, and if it's going to look horrible, don't be afraid to make a suggestion. Try not to judge or impose your ideals on the customer, you wont make any money, and you will lose clientele.
After you get an understanding of what the customer wants, you will need to make a sketch of what they want, and have them approve. If the sketch is approved you will then
draw an outline, and place it on transfer paper. The transfer is applied to the skin with a tattoo goo, and then you start to tattoo.
As far as shop stuff goes. You need to keep the shop clean, keep all consent forms on file, and keep internments and tools clean. The chairs need to be wiped down before and after each client. Guns need to be auto-claved, and needles and ink caps need to be disposed of properly. Gloves need to be changed before and after the tattoo. As well as during clean up, and if you touch anything, gloves MUST BE CHANGED. Hands do need to be washed even if you are wearing gloves. Health Department guidelines have to be followed, or you can get your tattoo license taken away.
