Arrow opinions on flower

It's kind of beyond abstract in a fun sort of way. Several hobbyists and professional artists and designers have suggested that I try to put them on merchandise, so your opinion is greatly appreciated (or suggestions about how to go from my wall to boutique clothes shops would be great too)
(the adjusted image cropped properly is on my website)

Re: opinions on flower

It's certainly very vivid and graphic, so yes, I could see a market for such work

Re: opinions on flower

A fun painting and it would turn into a great shopping bag if you were wanting ideas - I have in mind like the Butler and Wilson picture bags.

Re: opinions on flower

Lol Angie I was only saying B & W as they are a huge designer fashion jewellery/accessory maker over here so I thought you might have heard of him. Simon Wilson designs most of his own stuff and is a millionaire on the strength of it. I am sure though there are companies out there looking for designers such as yourself.
There are companies too where you can get images of your artwork put on mugs, aprons, caps etc - I know there are people on here with links to their merchandise in their signature line - names escape me at present.

It could well be worth your while cross posting this thread in the Art Business section here at Wet Canvas - just go to the drop down menu of areas at the top left of the screen and click on Art Business then "go". Also there is a section further down called "wearable art". The people that 'hang' in these forums should be able to help you.

Good luck in your venture - I wish you every success.
