Da Spice...
- Most professional artist sell prints of their work because not everybody can afford to buy the originals n shyt. Some do a limited number edition of prints while others just are more on da commercial side of things wit whoever wants a print can just order em from their main sites. Lot of mah friends and I usually just trade our works but sometimes we'll buy each other's shyt too. Like i said it just depends on da artist who's work you like. Not all artist like to monetize dey shyt like dat so findin prints of some artists' works you like can be a pain in da ass.
- When i say "Art of..." books i'm sayin dat in regards to da entertainment industry. A lot of films/game studios release books full of pre production concept artwork i.e. costume, character, creature, prop, world designs. All da work dat's created in da beginning of da production pipeline of a project (film,game,etc). All da creative brainstorming dat goes into developing the look and feel of da shyt you're watching or playing.
