As an avid collector of Shag's prints who is utterly devoid of artistic talent, I've often wondered what an artist like Shag who crosses over to the Illustrator/Commercial realm thinks about the proliferation of his art in non-traditional mediums. Does he feel at all like musicians who've "gone commercial" who always state in interviews that they are glad they did because now they have a wider listening audience? Or does an artist want to maintain an air of exclusivity to his/her works?
