Well, okay, I'm not exactly starving. But I am broke, and I have heard many times that people like my artwork, so I've decided to start putting it up on Redbubble.com for purchase as prints, posters, greeting cards etcaetera.

http://www.redbubble.com/people/magicmadzik

There will be more coming, of course.

The main reason I've decided to do this is because I just found out there is a Bounty reunion in July and I absolutely have to be there- and I don't have the money. So, buy a postcard, buy a print, help me get to America in July to see my ship and my crew again!

So, how does one go about buying? I want one.

You click 'Buy' next to the individual pictures. For example: http://www.redbubble.com/products/configure/17936944

I do want to start making prints myself at some point and sending them personally, but that is too difficult for me to set up right now which is why I went with RedBubble. They put the art on the material of your choice and ship it to you, and I get my percentage. They're good with t-shirts (I've bought those from them before) I don't know about art prints but I've heard good stuff about them so I expect they are quality.

:D So glad to see there is interest. I will make more, I just need to get organised, scan in high res, etc...

I'm waiting to see what all you upload. :D

So far, I'm really liking The Creation of the World and The Brick-Scented City. :) I probably won't be able to afford much, but I'm hoping to buy several cards.

:) Thank you :) It's good to see interest, and that people like them even if they can't afford to buy them. :) I'm getting kind of desperate here to get anything at all started. I've had five job offers cancelled on me at the last minute since I got back to Poland last September...one of which today. It's depressing. This idea isn't much but it's some sort of motivation not to just curl up and die.

Could there be a tshirt option? I don't know if I could afford one right now but I'd love to have the blanket of dreams on a shirt.

Yeah? In that case I'll adapt it for a t-shirt. There's a separate template for that. :D It doesn't cost me anything to have the pictures up, it's just a percentage at purchase, so I can put it up and it will wait for you :D :)

I thought that "Little House Under The Trees" would be perfect for a t-shirt. I've bought a few from RedBubble in the past (although I can't afford to now) and it seemed like just the kind of thing that would go down well there. You know, framed-but-not-framed, if you see what I mean. :)

Noticed these on FB yesterday, and I have to say, I am incredibly jealous of your talent. Keep at it. :horse:

When I can afford to buy something, I will. I like the coffee mugs. :)
