I think it’s perfectly ok to put any sorta-related art on CAF. Everyone can
choose what to look at. I mean, it’s up the Bill in the end and the ‘rules’ for
Caf and the ‘rules’ for this list (do we even have any since we moved service?
Alex is the king of that question!) aren’t the same thing. But whereas I know
some collectors/list-members might see only published comic book art as
‘viable’, many, I’d say most, have less tight boundaries and are happy with
sketches, commissions, illustration art, book covers….hell, if someone here
bought a Rembrandt or part of the Sistine Chapel, and wanted to put that up,
I’d be happy to look….

Is it officially cool to have an illustration section of your CAF now? I
missed that. I don’t have a ton, but am happy to put up what little I have.
On this specific topic. Cool piece Ray!

Besides Illustration is now a component of CAF including a lot of work by
illustrators who did not work in comics (and while there is a lot of
crossover there are also many who worked solely in illustration.) George

Hi Mark:
James Martin worked with Neal Adams at Continuity Studios. So unless all art
by comic artists that was not done for a comic book is barred, this is art by
a comic book artist.
Best wishes!

James Martin - Susanne 1967
On December 21st I contacted James and sent along photo reference for this
possible commission. James responded positively and enthusiastically right
away: "Absolutely! Could do something really special with that! May get to
this one sooner than later! ;)" By December 31st the commission was
completed and it was mailed right after the New Year's holiday, arriving
here January 13th.
This lovely commission is 11" x 14".

may wish to check out. Comments are most welcome!
