Graig - your work is incredible. While I will never own one of your large pieces, I would love to. I agree with what everyone is saying re: exposure, contacts, leads, etc.

My question is.....why do you need an agent especially given the fact you do not intend to do pieces that require licensing, etc? Your comments about Dean (above) lead me to believe you don't exactly love the guy. Am I reading them wrong?

Good luck in the future!
