:bulletblue:Ladydove7's ORIGINAL Art for 50% OFF!:bulletblue:


Hey guys! I liiive, if only slightly.:crazy: I've been busy busy doing illustrations for my Techniques class, job searching, and going insane from TWO internships at once so I've been continually quiet on the art front minus the Rapunzel comic for the paper and the assignments I've been posting here. I hope to change all that in light of a few exciting developments!

First off, I'm really cracking down this year to get serious about my artwork, convention sales, and plotting out the skeletal work for my illustration studio. I'm sending out to Conduit (much love to =mistressofspam for helping me out with that:love:) and I FINALLY got accepted into Dragon Con's latest show! I was rejected last year, which really was a blow to the ego. But now that I've managed to get in against odds of 1 in 4, I'm feeling a little more like myself lately.

What does this mean? It means I have hardly any original work to my name. It's all been sold off or given away to friends. I'll be cracking down to get more art produced (starting with the Seasonal Angels series) and then who knows what the future holds? Female Archangels? Birthstone Angels? Fallen Angels? More fairy tale adaptations? The possibilities are endless...especially when you think that I'm graduating May 31st. Kwaaah! *runs around*

But I'm not there yet! So here's where you come in to help me with my homework! I've just put up a slew of Polls for you all to answer. What I'm doing is gathering research to figure out a marketing plan for my Angelic Shades Studio. I want to know who is interested in my art and how I might better serve you as an artist:heart: I've put up the following Polls to find out a little more about you lovely folks:

How old are you?
Are you male or female?
What is your income level?
What is your favorite genre of fine art?

This info is anonymous unless you share your specifics in the poll in a comment. I would love to hear more about who you are, but I do not require it and won't abuse your info. Please help me by answering these Polls! I want to make sure I'm going the right direction with my studio as it's you fine folks that I wish to serve. If there's enough interest, it might be fun to post a general consensus so we can all sit back and laugh at how poor we all are.

And so I leave you with this glimpse into the future.:)

:love:
Ang

Cool! Thanks so much for participating:) Every vote will help me with my project. I am mainly interested in finding out why people like my work and why they might invest in it if they do have the money. Also, it is even more important to me to find out what people enjoy:)

Thank you kindly:) If I think up any more questions, I will post them for sure! There's been a great response so far so I think I might do a general consensus for fun so everyone can sit back and laugh at how poor we all collectively are XD

Hiya Angela! I filled out your polls, but I also had a suggestion. I seen when I read that you seemed interested in doing some more angels. I love how you draw them, but it makes me very curious. Would you like to expand out? Maybe draw a pheonix, dragon, maybe a troll or other "ugly" creature? Maybe a child? Something that would challenge you a bit more, I'd love to see the outcome!

Congrats on going to Dragon Con hun! :hug:

Hmm not really interested in any of those other creatures, but I do like the more human-animal ones like sphinxes and mermaids. I might try the others for experimentation purposes, but they just don't interest me all that much. It is a good suggestion though:nod: Thanks for taking the time to fill out my polls! It will be very helpful.

And thanks for the congrats! I'm really looking forward to it.:excited:
