Thanks Michael - excellent post!

This is an area of interest to me.... I haven't done anything with it yet, but I have an artist friend who would be happy for me to promote his prints on commission....

Here is another interesting story. Here in Australia, there is a well-known artist named Ken Done. Not only does he sell his original art and prints, but he also makes a lot of money selling his art on T-shirts, caps, mugs, etc. Every tourist shop in Australia seems to have a compulsory bunch of Ken Done T-shirts on sale for tourists....

So what is Ken Done's secret? Is it how he paints? Or maybe is it the subject of his art? Well, that may have something to do with it. But my artist friend thinks differently....

In a previous career, Ken Done was an extremely successful advertising man! I think there's his REAL secret!
