I have acrylic paintings on block canvas that i need to transport via airfreight, how do i go about this ? I am worried about untacking the canvas and rolling them as i'm not sure that acrylic paint can withstand the stress of being rolled and unrolled without some damage or cracking. Will it help if i varnish them first? and with what? is spray laquer a good option?

If for example, someone wanted me to paint Mickey Mouse on their kids bedroom wall, is it legal to be paid for that??? I am not "selling" the characters image to the public. I know you can if it is for personal use with no intention to sell it, wouldn't I be selling my painting skills since it isn't to the "public"?

I want to know if its illegal to create an artistic image of a celebrity (stencil, drawing, painting etc) and sell it for a profit. Do you need to get permission?? I know that photographers take pictures of celebrities and sell them at a high price to magazines. I just wanted to know if it is the same/different for art. Thanks!

i have an account on DeviantArt.com

www.klsart.deviantart.com

but i talked to some people there, and they say that no one ever buys anything off that site. not even from the better photographers. and their payment situation is very strange with too. and just to let u know, myspace is not an option, either is ebay (i dont have a credit card) or craigslist (face it, no one will looks for photography there) so...whats the best way for people to notice to my pictures? and my talent. i am very serious about this. no stupid answers. dont waste my time. this could become my career! haha. thanks!

I was assigned an art project of something that i saw or experienced that inpacted me while I was in Spain. I decided to paint a flamenco dancer and a bull. I enjoyed painting it but i dont know if its any good. This is my first time drawing and attempting to paint and was wondering if i have any talent before i go and buy all the art stuff.

Bull: this was my practice before going on canvas with the dancer since ive never painted before

I was recently at an event that was in a dimly-lit hall, and I took pictures with my Sony DSC-T10 digital camera. The pictures come out better when taken with no flash, but only if the camera is held extremely steadily. How can I make pics come out clearer on the no-flash setting? It's pretty hard to keep the camera steady, so there is always some blurriness. Would a faster shutter speed work? Or, is there any way to improve this on the Sony digital cameras?

Thanks for your help!

I've been sending my film to walmart and walgreens and some pictures turn out underexposed and some turn out fine. The pictures were taken right after each other. Does anyone else have this same problem with walmart or walgreens?
