I find myself looking at Original Art a lot lately. I guess a couple of reasons. One, Ive always loved the stuff but have very little of it (probably about 5 low grade pages). However, I do find when I have Original Art that is my own, I look at the work involved and put into it and marvel how it is done. And sometimes I think I can do that if I just put my mind to it. I usually find what sets artist apart who make it and those who just remain wannabees is the true professionalism of the art itself and also how clean the work is. Most artist have no stray lines where they shouldnt be. The inking is usually clean too. I sometimes wonder if there are good markers and felt tips to use.
Secondly was just seeing all that original art at that guys house Joey knew at Heroes Con. It was rather inspiring. That was a lot of good stuff just sitting in one room. I got envious quick.
Third....Putting Comic Art fans as a link up top as a Quick Link you go to from my board. I find I have visited often in the last few days. Im trying to get a feel for the art that is out there. What prices are typical for what pieces and also trying to understand things I dont. Sometimes I am amazed how much recreations and even photo copies bring in. There is truly a lot to learn if the desire is there. I think within me, it is growing. I dont think I will ever have high dollar stuff, but I would like to know what I am looking at and take advantage of something good should I ever encounter a true opportunity (you never know).
Fourth....I think it will be a good subject for my board. Im trying to make my board an all around place about anything and everything comics. This area so far is sorely lacking on my board. Yes, it has been discussed a couple times. But I dont think it would hurt to have it discussed a lot more. It doesnt have to dominate. I dont want that. But, I do want it to have its own place on my board. So here it is.
Five...We need a place to put threads, pictures and overall discussions of Art. Did you win something recently? Put it here. Question an Auction? Put it here. Admire a work or piece? Put it here. I want the board to continue growing and this is just an area that needed to be added.
As with any part of the board. Thank you in advance to your contributions!
