I am doing it. I was going to write out a whole post but now it all just seems to be coming out over here…
Law banning sales of prints at Jackson Square is in trouble
Twelve comments in and the word “thugs” has not been mentioned yet.
I actually am not super passionate about prints on the Square but I do get motivated by bullshit. The BS in there is where someone says prints will raise the quality of art out there. Brining prints to the Square won’t do anything even close. Firstly because prints are a piss poor thing to hang on a wall (sorry if anyone reading this owns one) and second because the artists who do fleur de lis and jazz men will simply stop hand painting these and have them printed out.
My original art will flourish in spite of them or I can order some screen prints up of my work from the shop down the street.
