Art Sale Coming Soon!

[ysabetwordsmith.livejournal.com]

haikujaguar is planning an art sale soon, and wants to get preliminary input on how many people are interested. Photo-quality and museum-quality prints will be available at various prices/sizes. If you love fantasy art, go take a look. This also makes a great opportunity for early holiday shopping, if you know someone else who would cherish fine art.

On the cyberfunded creativity side: haikujaguar maintains a close, active relationship with her audience. Some of these pictures were painted using brushes from a fan-funded brush fundraiser. The selection of which sketches get promoted to paintings is heavily influenced by the number and enthusiasm of viewer comments: paintings are almost always developed from among the most popular sketches. When it comes time for a print sale, all that money goes straight to the artist, not to a gallery or agent. So when you get involved in something like this, you can have a direct influence on what art manifests, and you can provide material support to someone whose work you admire.
