Prints?

Journal Entry: Thu Feb 7, 2008, 12:00 AM
I just remembered yesterday that a month or two ago I got the idea of buying a print account on dA. I'm not sure how I forgot.. for some reason I still had it in my head that I'd sell prints independently through my website when it's up. But I think it would be a better idea to use deviant art as their print selling system seems like less hassle and effort on my part, offers a lot of variety for types of prints and doesn't cost that much for a year's subscription.


But the real question is, is there any point in doing this? Would people - you for instance, or people you know - buy posters and mugs and mousemats of my work?

I realise a lot of my work is still in development, and maybe isn't aesthetically pleasing enough for someone to want to spend money on it. But I really feel like I have all this potential built up inside of me and I really think my work is going to see a real change over the next while. Even if I only got a few customers it would be awesome to know people liked my stuff enough to have it on something.. and obviously make a little bit of cash for myself in the process.

Most of my current work is too small to be printed out much larger than 10" so it wouldn't be that expensive anyway. I would however make larger images if I thought people wanted them.
