I'm in a created writing class (so far mainly working on poetry). My teacher is going to be putting together a magazine of the classes work, and he's said to get together some imagery to go with the poems.

Since I can't draw, I was wondering if anyone would be interested in illustrating some of mine for me? I have about five poems on varying subjects, which I'll send via PM to anyone interested.

You WOULD get artistic credit, but I won't be able to pay you…I would be happy to do an art trade though.

@Icarusflies: what an awesome class to take, good for you :)

I don't know if my art would work but if you have a poem that you think it would I could give it a try on one of them.

@M.S. Feather: Deadline is January 2nd or 3rd I believe…not sure exactly, but it's the date of the English final at my school.

@tonis: I'm not really sure your artwork would print?

@spiderbat87: Yeah, sure!

If you by chance had a poem about a warrior rabbit I'd be willing to due an Usagi Yojimbo sketch for you!

@Icarusflies: it'll print, but how it looks would depend on what your printing it on

@MetropolisKid41: LOL, no warrior rabbits I'm afraid.

@tonis: School printers most likely. HP Laserjets mostly I think?

yea any of my stuff could print on those, the only possible issue would be if you resized stuff, specifically enlarging. There you might get pixalation that might show. Kind of like photographs when you blow them up too big on a printer.

@tonis: I'm not going to be dealing with the printing, so I don't know what will happen. >shrugs<

It could be worth a try.

I'll send you the poems later, I have to work now.

When I comes to publishing on paper, black and white is always the least expensive and easiest way to go, and as you can see...A LOT can be done with black and white.  :D

@tonis: @M.S. Feather:

Guys, if you're still interested I'd need the pieces by January 2nd.
