We’re working on the first issue of the newest incarnation of _teemings_, the SDMB’s much-loved e-zine. (Read about it [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=539302).)
One thing that will be different from the previous version is that I want to do a lot more with graphics – including showcasing artwork by the many talented Dopers who I know are out there.
What I’m looking for:
[ul]
[li]The visual arts as traditionally understood: watercolors, ink drawings, etc.[/li][li]Photos, whether singly or in a photo-essay format. Another possibility is a photo that serves to illustrate an anecdote or other bit of writing, whether a longish caption or a shortish story. [/li][li]Cartoons and comics that mix visuals and text within the piece[/li][li]Multimedia pieces and handcrafted art: mosaics, collage, etc.[/li][li]Beautiful handmade objects that are usually considered “crafts”: jewelry, wood carvings, knitting, quilts, etc.[/ul][/li]So, artsy Dopers, go rummage around in your portfolios, and see what you’ve got – or grab your favorite implements and come up with something new.
You can either send me a link to where you’ve got your work posted online (photobucket or the like), or send me the files directly. The email address for submissions is \*teemings at gmail dot com. \*

You really want to display MY art work?

Cool! I’ll see if I can find some stuff to submit.

Damn, you’re right, I didn’t think that all the way through. The OP should’ve read, “So, all artsy Dopers except **prr** …”
😛

but, what I would be willing and or able to do would be to email photographs of my work to an email address that’s available for that. Feedback, anybody?
