Hi
i have a good mate who is a good graffiti artist. He can draw some great pictures like cartoon characters and people pics etc. how would you lots suggest I market some great drawings . I am finding that customers like to see ideas and then buy them rather then make there own designs, yes I can sell a few mugs and gifts that are personalised with individual photos etc but I seem to think that a lot of people see something and like it and buy it. For example people like the keep calm items .
do you lot sell your own designs well? Or should I not go down this route.

Not sure if the above statement makes much sense or not?........

Find your own niche in the market, http://www.wickedartzshop.com/ springs to mind...but obviously your own ideas.

Thanks Justin, that gives me a idea !
Like I've said before yachts and fishing are my expertise. Lots of things coming to mind now.

Then set up your own licensing deals so other members can pay you to print the designs! lol.

Those designs are very similar to Koolart Justin - I had to look twice to see the differences but very, very similar (nice all the same though).

Seen those cars before but just assumed they were koolart. Learn something new everyday.

If your mate is good with grafitti you could create a couple of new fonts based on that. You could do personalised mugs to order then
