So, with Mid-Ohio-Con coming up, I wanted to sell art at my table. The thing I really wanted to sell was some nice-ass prints of my DC artwork. But I was concerned with selling prints, coz I've heard of DC going after artists selling prints. I've even had an auction, years ago, where I sold a hand colored print of Wonder Woman characters on E-Bay that was taken down. However, Mid-Ohio-Con will not have an official DC presence there.
I asked an online buddy of mine who is a big-time artist at DC (a super, super talented artist who I admire and respect both artistically and personally - one day I am totally going to hang out with this person, at least at a convention) their opinion. They said that honestly, DC really doesn't care about prints, that Artist Alley is where young artists make their money, and that the only thing they ever heard of where DC had a problem with prints is someone who had taken a cover for them that they had done (so it was already paid for by DC) and turned it into prints/posters, but that I should print up stuff and sell the hell out of it.
This was most awesome news. It means I'm going to be selling prints of my DC Heroines and DC Villainesses pieces at Mid-Ohio-Con, or at least trying to sell them. For $50. They are not cheap to print up, and they're big and cost a lot. And it means I need to get more of my Heroines piece printed up, since I only have 2 of that one left to sell and that one seems to be the more popular one. If anyone is interested in buying a print, let me know, coz the more prints I have made up, the cheaper it is for me to have them printed up.
On a completely unrelated note, I am the MAN. I totally re-wired a lamp today. Not only re-wired it, but bought the cord for the lamp, bought the plug to attach the cord, took the lamp apart and attached the wire to and down into the lamp. I put it all back together, stuck a bulb in there, plugged it in, and it totally lights up. GO. ME. Never done it before. Now we just gotta' buy a new shade for the lamp this weekend. I got some new skillz!!!!!
