Anonymous: Jackie it'd do you a world of good if you would've waited until your art skill was a bit more advanced. I think your attitude on customers as well as your attitude as a seller for artist alley is rather negative and you'd probably benefit from just being more personable as an artist and a seller. Your prices are a bit outrageous for your level of skill so try working on your art before selling for as high as you do.
Thank you. My prices are my choice, and an illustrator should not be paid less than minimum wage for their work. If you are an artist, you will understand my dilemma, and if you are not, then you don’t understand how long it takes to make a single decent piece of work. As for the artist alley thing, again, if you have been in artist alley for at least half a decade, you’ll understand the amount of shit artists get there, and if you’re a customer, my blog brings light of it. Artist alley teaches you patience. Everything I hold in while at the convention goes out on this blog. My blog is not just a representation of a decade’s worth of experience, it represents me, my friends, and many other artists’ experiences we wish to bring light to. Also, you shouldn’t expect a passive blog if the title of the series is called ‘Angry Artist Alley’
Living in the Bay Area, where inflation is insane and having school loans in the five digits range, it’s kind of hard to change that price range. From what I have experienced, my price range is just as reasonable as the table next to me, the table across from me, and any other table in the same vicinity as me.
But if it makes you feel any better, no I’m not selling at conventions for a while because I decided to pursue my life as a comic book artist instead of illustrator, and sacrificing a lot of time to do that.
You can give me this same lecture after you read my my next comic ;)

she's been an artist for 10 years and this is how her work looks? I suppose some people are just fucking talentless.

http://jackieloart.com/blog/angry-artist-alley-they-wont-go-away/Is she just the most inhospitable person on the planet? Like, does just saying hi to her
trigger her or set off some kind of ptsd?
"My emergency procedure: They are likely standing there because they think they’re having a long deep conversation with you. Just break their concentration. Tell them you need to go to the bathroom, tell the person next to your table to watch it. Then, you either go to the bathroom (recommended) or walk away for about five minutes and come back. That is usually plenty of time for someone to get too bored and walk away and go ‘yea I’ll come back later’…they usually don’t :P"
What is she, fucking five? Why doesn't she just tell them that she's busy or just doesn't want to talk?
