Artist Wanted

[cecilia]

as someone who's been a professional artist (ie, i've been PAID) for many, many, many, many years......i have to ask:

who's getting the money for this?

i mean, it's a nice "idea" and all that, but isn't this just an excuse to have artists - unpaid - contribute to somebodies little project?

trust me, artists don't REALLY want to be famous.
they just want to be creative while earning a living wage.

I can - and have - a web site with pics that I have made and it's all free.
why should i give stuff away for somebody else's book?

this is not meant as a slam. i'm simply asking questions.

yeah, I just love it when people assume that because one is either an "artist" or has done something artistic that it's just, well, "easy" so they can rip you off, no problem.

i mean, after all, you can make more pictures in your sleep, so why bother to actually pay anyone for the years of practise, effort, sacrific, and disipline it took to make that picture?

if I do something for "free" it should be MY choice, NOT theirs!

I think the Ascci SuperHero needs to save us!
(wouldn't it be funny if Karlos and myself got rich off that stupid idea?) :lol:
