I have no idea whether or not it would help other artists get more sales, but I still think they'd love it. For me I'd just be plain curious about how you would translate MY work into YOUR work. (I wouldn't really care about sales, lol, but then...you know me! I'm only selling my stuff out of a sense of obligation, not because I need to or because I love selling...because I kind of hate selling. I like that people want to buy and I don't mind some aspects but overall making my sticks knowing it's with the intention of selling them, that it's not just for fun...it's a drag. I prefer just showing them to people on LJ and at DevArt. But when you DO sell your stuff, it's nice when people actually want to buy it. Slow months make you feel like a loser.)
March was VERY busy for my Etsy shop (only October of last year was busier.) and April looks like it will at least be 'okay'. November-December-January-Feburary were a slump. Maybe people are starting to thaw out of their fear...or maybe it's because it's spring...I dunno!
Anyway I think it's a fun idea, and very generous of you.
Oh hey, I ended up in another treasury. This is my third ever, though I count it as my second since the first one was of a print. And it's my first one that actually has my sticks in the treasury because the other one was my FACE. So it's kind of my first 'real' treasury. :)
Oh, and the weather. -____- We already have a coating of two inches that fell in the past few hours. There should be a rule that it can't snow at ALL if it's 0C or over...at most you should get sleet at 0C and then it has to be RAIN. April is such a difficult month. It's hard not to really resent the weather when you know that if it would just cooperate as it CAN in some years, you could be biking for the whole month. I really resent using my stationary bike in April.
