You seem like a nice guy and I respect that you sell your work for good prices, but I dont understand why you are so ready to accept the standard you are at. Why not keep pushing to get better?
Talking of selling images when I was a student I couldnt shift my work under my own name so I worked late in an architects office and printed out big A1 sheets of drawings on their plotter, and then made up a fake italian designer to sign them in order to flog them on ebay.

It worked a treat but when people started coming round wanting to know more about "the famous Antony Valenti" and if they could meet him it got harder and harder to keep a straight face. Particularly when my housemate who's name I had stolen would walk in HAHAHAHAHA

I thoroughly recommend it; the two approaches that worked best are laser-targetting fanatical fans of a particular car and drawing up 'new' versions of their beloved motor for their office wall, or as above you can make up a whole imaginary person and claim they are an obscure and undervalued Italian genius, and all these braying Nathan Barleys in London think theyve discovered just the thing to impress the glinty-eyed scooter-riding graphic-designer puppet people they use for friends. Its hysterical.

Just proves what i thought, especially living out here now. Americans have, A...no taste and B...more money than sense.

My 19 month year old can do that...maybe i'll get him paying for his nappies...sorry diapers now.

LMAO...it IS a tough World out there !

I was lucky guys thats all...grew up in detroit, best friends were all car designers, got hooked up with the racing stuff and it sold.

so I dont have to use a fake name...LOL, thats a great story btw JD, I love it ..& NO I am NOT content to just stay as I am at all!...many of the works on the site are older stuff too, as I and the other Artists there change and develop new things will be posted every week, nothing stays the same for long...and thats cool with me too, all of the stuff threre was done in the last 10 months or so, expect many changes as we grow, but the point is it DOES work right now.
