"Selling" is not "selling out."

Selling out for Shag would be maybe making Shag diapers or Shag Kool-Aid, something in direct opposition to his art. But, hey, some adults might like their kids pooping in Shag work.

Any artist is selling their work. The more the better. It's when the sales dictate the work that it changes.

All I see is people taking existing (old) Shag work and putting on every sort of item imaginable.

I am happy to say the only Shag anything I have that wasn't given to me is a Tease-O-Rama t-shirt. If I paid for Shag stuff, I would be selling out. I AM one of the people in a Shag painting. I live in that mod house and drive that mod car! Dammit! Live the Shag!
