The local university has an art fair every year (this weekend, in fact) where local artists come and set up tents and display their stuff. I went a few years ago and saw one guy who had lots of large prints of flowers where he used selective color to highlight just the flower and everything else was B&W. Simple Photoshop trick, but people seemed to like it and were oohing and aahing over his pics. I didn't hang around to see how many he sold.

The problem with selling like that is the big investment in printing, mounting, and framing. Then to recoup your money, you need to sell at somewhat high prices. Plus you spend your weekends traveling to art fairs and such to try to sell your images. Not sure it pays off.
