This is funny... I LOVE talking to people at my table at cons. Unfortunately when I am busy dealing with 5 people wanting to buy prints, socalizing is not always possible. If I stoped and took time to talk to you alone, I would be pissing off 4 other people. The dealer room has many slow times and during those times it is best to talk to me.
One thing I pride myself on is not preasuring anyone to buy my art when they are at my table. I enjoy talking to fans and friends and have had the same problem with people complaining that they tried to buy a print but I was too busy talking to someone and ignored them wanting to buy my art. In those cases, I was being polight and not wanting to cut someone off in mid sentance to make a sale.
So in any case I cannot win. People come to my table with expectations and as much as I would love to accomodate everyone I just cannot. I appreciate what >>36 said about my responsibilities. I do feel I owe the furry community for their support both monitary and verbally. That's why my NET posts are of a decent size (usually 750 pixles wide) with no annoying watermarks or "DO NOT POST" text all over it. I DO respect my fans and do enjoy talking to them at the cons.
If in the future you want to talk to an artist, don't try to do it at a busy time. Check the dealer room often and look for lag times and approach then. You will get a much better reception and the artist won't be stressed with having to accomodate everyone at once.
