I've never had a good handle on what folks want either. "it'll look good over the couch" is something that does not resonate with me. So when I had the opportunity to participate in a print sale, I picked photos that I liked and put them up for sale. My tastes are often considered a bit odd, but I managed quite a few print sales anyway...
It's very hard to know what's going to sell at print sales. I look at photos on sale at various local shows and see nothing I would buy, but I see dozens of people carrying those prints home. It's perplexing.
