catalinacaper Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Esao Andrews has been increasing his run sizes of his prints, which should hopefully help. I hate how expensive they're getting, but good for him. If he sells all 350 of them on Monday (which I have absolutely no DOUBT he will), he'll make $42,000 in one day. That's crazy. He's not exactly killing it. He makes good money as a well known artist but those 3-4 print drops a year are likely a sizeable chunk of his income (and you know he's not making $42k profit).

Safe to say he's making 100k+ per year, which for an artist is pretttttty fucking nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icecream Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 True, but he has an insane work ethic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGhostOfRandySavage Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 True, but he has an insane work ethic Well, yeah. Not saying he doesn't deserve it. Dude's a workhorse and he puts out quality stuff. Guy above just seemed to be downplaying how much money he was making, and between prints, licensing artwork, etc. He's definitely making a buttload more money than most artists.

Yeah, I know it's not profit. But for any artist to be making his living solely off of his art is pretty insane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catalinacaper Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Was only downplaying the $42k comment. I realize how little most artists make from their work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kjm23 Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Anyone wanna buy the Esao print on Monday and add some cash for a Drive Stout poster? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 No money to even try. I'm not sure I like the print either. I normally love Esao's stuff, but not so much this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dapeebs Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 I like this one, and as much as I want it, I know that missing out on it wouldn't be the worst thing, as it's $120 I can put into something else that I will most likely get more use out of.

catalinacaper Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 I actually got it! I. AM. SO. STOKED! Same, but like I said. Not quite Mondoesque. Lasted a full minute and a half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dapeebs Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Same, but like I said. Not quite Mondoesque. Lasted a full minute and a half. True, true. For some reason I remember his last print selling out before my page even refreshed, but hey, if it's this easy every time, count me in for all of his future prints!

catalinacaper Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 I've contemplated selling my Drifters print (deluxe album art for Blue Sky Noise) but mine was shipped in between two flat pieces of cardboard and bent in half by the mail people. Big crease across the middle. I think Esao was a little stoned packaging prints that day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
