Hello Ikki World,
I have been trying to redesign our website myself with the help of WIX and YouTube and I think I'm heading in the right direction, but I would love some input from you. I could make products all day long, but I could be making stuff no one likes. My hope for this website is for everyone to be represented and feel they are respected. I really want to hear what you have to say and hear your ideas. I thought maybe I could use one of his rainbow pieces and make an LGBTQ+ Pride line. Maybe something like:
But, I want to make sure I respect the LGBTQ+ community, so I would love some input and ideas from members of that community and your input will be received with much love and respect. Just an FYI, it took my daughter, Snow, coming out to us in 7th grade or me to come out as Pan. Thank you ❄. I am happily married to my best friend from high school, Steve, but that doesn't mean I can't appreciate the beauty in everyone. I do ask Snow's opinion, but she's biased. I'm not just wanting input from one community.
I want everyone that has something positive to say, to speak up and be heard. I want to help you speak your truth, even if it's a t-shirt for your family reunion.
Hint, hint... Kellie ;)
The actual artwork (originals, silkscreens, giclees, etc.) on the "Artwork" page, on the website, is pretty straight forward. We will always have Archival Paper and Canvas Art in the Giclees category available, along with silkscreens, posters, and secondary markets, as long as be have paper, but with the technology we have today, we are no longer limited to just paper or canvas. Which of course, I have been having so much fun recreating my father's artwork into new and exciting products from stickers to Wallpaper. I know it sounds crazy, but there are just so many applications to choose from. That is awesome and daunting, so I'm asking for you to help me by taking a few minutes to answer a survey about you. There is a space at the bottom to leave additional comments, so please let me hear your ideas. I love being able to create something special for each person. That's one reason I loved being a custom picture framer, which I got my start at our gallery on Tarpon Bay Road on Sanibel. Now there are so many possibilities.
Also, my father donated many images to different local organizations over the years and I have been carrying on that legacy, so if you have an organization that would like to partner with me, send me a message with your proposal. These were just a few.
So, I would totally appreciate it if you would please fill out my survey, and for the first twenty people to submit their survey, I will mail you a special gift. By mentioning this special at the end lets me see who is actually paying attention. ;)
Oh, one last thing. I want to wish my beautiful and talented niece, Ella, a very happy 18th birthday. You can wish her happy birthday too, in the comments.
Looking forward to seeing who speaks up and what great ideas you will have.
Stay inspired,
Amy
