UGA DAWG Artwork What Do You Have?

BiffLowmanBiffLowman Posts: 695 ✭✭✭✭✭ Graduate

I'm a teacher and a coach at the high school level. Believe it or not, it's hard to make ends meet! I started making sports related artwork. I can do any school/team out there. It is all done with pallet wood. If you are interested, let me know! Prices start at $125. They make awesome gifts!! Do any of y'all make or have any nice UGA artwork we can see?

    Nice work @BiffLowman.

    I could see those selling on the side of the road heading to Athens on game days. Add a variety of sizes and you could probably earn a weeks salary or more in one day.

    The reason I mentioned the side of the road is that shipping can get costly on items of that size and weight.

    It is best when I am able to deliver on person, no doubt. I have thought many times about coming out on game day to sell. Where are the tailgaters who have the most disposable income? I'll start w them!

    I have done over 100 of them. Most aren't on my site. Any other teams...just ask. I've done most. Thanks!

    Have you considered selling through the various bookstores around campus? Or even see about setting up shop just outside those bookstores. Also approaching local sports memorabilia stores... Even if they take a percentage off the top, I can see these moving pretty fast because they look amazing! Go Dawgs!

    In order to do that would require licensing. That costs a LOT of money. I have some of the work up at local sports bars and stores. It helps! They sell themselves.

    TRUTH! I am going through it now (I'm close to the end of the process, thankfully) and I can verify that it is a lot of work for a small business with no track record of selling a million hats to get a license, but worth it.
    IF (big if) a business is approved the fee to license is $500 plus 15% of gross sales (which involves accounting software so the school can conduct an audit).

    I cannot express how excited I am that I will soon (possibly by Wednesday) be able to share with the Dawgnation family the project that I have been working on for the last eight months... I think you all will be excited, too!

    I hope it involves some of your creativity we see on the forum!

    We just removed a long row of Leyland Cyprus trees that created a privacy barrier in our back yard, but they were thinning out at the bottom. We have a landscape designer coming tomorrow to create some designs.

    Yesterday my Daughter’s Sorority produced a Video that had the old scoreboard from Sanford in the background. My daughter told me it is in some guys backyard.

    Last night I floated a trial balloon to my wife of putting in a bid for the scoreboard and then planting hedges around the entire back yard. She popped my balloon but thought it was an awesome idea.

    Thanks! I haven’t been painting very long, but enjoy painting UGA scenes for people. You can’t go wrong painting the goal line stalker or UGA beating ND.
