I wrote this book to share my experience as a successfulartist-publisher of art posters and greeting
cards. All aspects of this process - design, production and marketing - are covered. The book is
dedicated to "artists every where" - and it is intended to be helpful to all those who give of
themselves that the world may be a more creative place.
