I just spoke with Scott Bieser, and we came to a general agreement on the following terms (I'm copying him on this email so he may correct me if I am misremembering or omitting anything): He will do the poster for $150 up front plus advertising in our newsletter and on our website, details to be arranged later. We will share ownership rights to the artwork with Scott, so either he or the LPSF will be able to freely resell or license use of the artwork to other libertarian groups who might want to reprint it with their own info. The original poster will be done in gray, with a one-color overlay (I suggested red, but said I would welcome his input on that decision), aiming for an 18" by 24" final size. If we get the printing done at his end, or otherwise arrange for him to have access to finished posters, he will sign some of them for us which should increase their value for sale or use in soliciting donations. Scott won't be able to start work on the project for a couple weeks, as he is in the middle of doing a comic book based on the life of Frederic Bastiat (should be cool!). When he starts, he estimated the process should take about 3-5 days, and he will be in touch with me during that process, doing a pencil sketch first and sending me a draft for feedback. I am to communicate to him more details on the vignettes that would surround the central panel, as he did not recall seeing details from me of more than two or three (it's quite possible I only sent details of two or three when I first described the idea to him; I have to go back and check). He did offer the opinion that about six vignettes or panels might work well; I don't recall how many I initially proposed, but I think it may have been more than that, and I do recall that Michael Edelstein said his donation was contingent on all of them being used. Hopefully there were not so many that Scott will find it poses a problem in terms of illustration, or we'll have to work something out on that.
Yours in liberty, <<< Starchild >>>
