Tikifish- I agree with you. I would never want to associate MY art (if indeed I had any to sell) with the art of another artist.
To me, that is just a 'gimmick' to get folks to buy or look at something that it is not.
And I think in most true artists there is a pride factor that will not allow them to do such a thing.

But, I still stand by my theory as to who are buying these items and why. I think it is a reasonable deduction. For certainly if somone were buying a painting for themselves, (and especially if they were into the "same subject matter") they would want either a.) an original piece by a fresh, orginial artist, or b.) an actual Shag or Bosko or established artist.

I'll be looking forward to the Chistmas Tikis, but will remember that you said you don't need money. :wink:
