Essentially I will be selling art at art shows every weekend in June and July and a few weekends in August. I applied and was accepted into Woodland Arts Fair and that is August 20-August 21 I applied to the St James Art Fair but haven't heard back yet. They notify artists in a few months. I am looking at shows in Colorado, Illinois and everywhere in between. That being said, obviously if you could please consider buying art from my shopify that would be GREAT! The link is here: https://wigginsartwork.myshopify.com/ Follow me on Instagram Custom Halftone Screenprint One Color Portrait! LINK IN PROFILE -OR- https://www.etsy.com/.../custom-halftone-screenprint-one... So I will take an image you provide that is HIGH RES 300 DPI and then make it half tone and then make it a screen-print that I print onto paper! ONLY ON 8.5 x 11 paper $100 includes design and one print onto paper. Additional prints of same image and size for $25 a print. This is cotton rag archival paper that is built to last! The image will not be the full size of the paper this is just the size of the paper that I will print on. I will leave a one inch border surrounding all sides. So 6.9 inches wide x 9 inches tall. I only offer one color prints. The only color I will offer now is black. This is only available to print onto paper currently. Why the price? I have to cover my supplies and time. I will have to manipulate the image to create something that be transferred and looks good on a silkscreen. I use silkscreens, water based ink, a squeegee and a scoop coater to make my prints. I also have to print out the image onto transparency/acetate/film/mylar and Everything is done by hand and printed manually one at a time. So that adds up. BUT what you get is a nice handmade gift you can give to your loved one or to family members! GREAT GIFT IDEA FOR SENIOR PORTRAITS, MOTHER'S DAY, FATHER'S DAY! Any other questions let me know?
