I have a problem! Maybe you can help!
I have to create enough sellable art in 8 weeks to fill 3 bays at a science fiction convention art show.
I also, as I have this sideline of ebook covers, have to create enough example covers and pre-made covers that I can sell to make my website worth visiting.
I have zero inspiration, alas. (I swing wildly between zero inspiration and too much coming at me, and no focus. #ADHDlife)
I am thinking that maybe if people supplied me with fake book titles, original characters from your fic (Genre fic: SF/F/Horror/Historical/Paranormal Romance, etc.) or RPGs, or other types of potential inspiration, it might help me focus.
No fanart, and you'd have to give me permission to sell prints and/or originals if it's your original character. (Stick with fake book/story titles if you're unsure!)
If I end up with a work out of it, I'll happily email you a high-res copy (with a permission letter for printing it out if you want to take it somewhere or get a print made online).
Obviously, I'm not going to be able to get to everyone's requests, and I have to impose a request deadline of AUGUST 1st, 2015 so I don't keep getting requests that I feel guilty about not being able to fulfill.
(If you want to know what I'm most looking for, it'll be things that have appeal to a wide variety of buyers. Your OC set in the contemporary American midwest might have great personal meaning to you, but not to someone who doesn't know the history of the character.)

And again, not around much, because...
...this list of things has been eating my time:
Skyrim
Making ebook covers
Watching my husband play Fallout 4, because he's hilariously enthusiastic
Making my husband play Witcher 3 so I can stare at Geralt's tight little ass
More Skyrim
Where'd you get your fine art quality prints made?
I used to just make my own, with a super-nice printer that did wide-format prints, but since I stopped doing artist alleys, I got rid of the printer. (I wasn't using it enough to keep the ink from drying out, and it's not worth having to drop $100 on a full set of ink for the, like, two prints I wanted per year.)
I signed up for an art show (not alley) at a convention later this year, and while most of my stuff is going to be originals, I'd like to put some limited-edition prints in, but they need to be fine-art quality, probably giclee prints, not just your average Staples color print.
Assume that I don't have any mom-and-pop print shops n
Original works added
But not here! They're over on my original-works DA account: ~sfolse (https://www.deviantart.com/sfolse).
Trying to get a few done for a convention this weekend. :)

Title: Moonlight Crescendo.
Style: Sci-Fi/F
Info: Three species. Three regions.
Vampires. Highly Technologic worlds. Feeds onto a rose that procures the nutritive elements they need. They own slaves (humans and werewolves).
Humans. Technology can be compared to our modern world. Some have magical powers, but they are few.
Werewolves. Stuck in a medieval-like settings, low technology. They are placed far far away from vampires, whom they fear. The Moon is their mistress.
(You can also and go inspire yourself with my unfinished stories at fictionpress ( www.fictionpress.com/u/133842/… ). They are old things that I never intend to finish XD )
