...for less than the cost of an arm and a leg.

Merry Christmas to everyone here in the OA forum - I just got back into original art this year, the knowledge here was invaluable, and I picked up a couple nice pieces from a couple of Boardies to boot.

Yes, a very Merry Christmas to all. It's always nice throwing comments out and reading the thoughts of my fellow boardies. I wish the best for all of you and your families. This time of year hopefully brings everything into perspective so far as what's truly important.

Stormy here in NW Vermont, but we are safe and sound enough to wish you all Happy Holidays.  Thanks to everyone for another great year of rumination and conversation about original comic art!  David and Julie Albright

Attached is a pencil and airbrush on illustration board piece by Jim Rownd image size about 8 X 8".

Congratulations to Jon Bogdanove on another incredible Christmas!

The IRS thanks him too 😉

Kinda sad to think that after the auction house cut, the IRS’ cut and the buyers state sales tax .. Jon prob got about half the total money paid for the artwork. Strike that…  HE STILL DID ALRIGHT!!!

The smart artist working in a home office can deduct quite a bit if he or she is creative enough
