Clarification- a more moment of your time?
Well that was a lesson for me in causing confusion; had I intended this I could scarcely have been more successful.
I was, in the original statement, attempting to illicit discussion on deck creators and their qualification and motivation to make a deck. I have picked up all kinds of tid-bits around the forum hinting at this, but I have not found a thread which brings it all together.
Now, I am obviously doing a deck myself- so there is my point of interest, but I was really trying to talk objectively on the subject rather than on my own work. Could I have posted the thread anonymously then this would have been ideal. So I tried to frame it as dispassionately as possible; as one might a purely academic question.
Sure- I realised when the deed was done that I had not achieved my aims (as I am sure I am not right now), but I was too knackered to fix it.
So can we talk about this without talking about me? You are a perceptive bunch.Those replies were like all the voices of reason coming at once, shining a light on my ill- communication.
To clarify on the website link- It is a gallery site from which I aim to sell my original artwork for the deck. $200 is the price per painting. It is currently the only place I have to show the work online. I was hoping to sell off the majors to fund the next bit.
When I self-publish in the first part of next year the deck will be priced at a very normal level- afterall this is me we're talking about and a diva I ain't.
On the subject of the feedback you did give. I love it! Grizabella -that is a great, one sentence description of the painting for the deck; though I was aiming at vibrant or saturated color (back-lit screens really hit those yellows), but I'll take lurid.
I posted over here because this is where you can be found.
I hope I have done a better job here. I am better with pictures than words; way easier to focus.
