thank you for the replies!
about branding..yes, that is interesting. I can very easily see selling many of my images both as stock and as fine art just as they are. Or, the same image plain as stock, but if I add more layers and create a composite it becomes more obviously fine art. The thought about stock buyers not being terribly interested about the photographer behind the work I think is true. However, with fine art, the person behind the style and subject matter seems to be much more important. Hence my confusion.
Yesterday I came up with a possible business name that should be a good umbrella to put everything under…stock photography, fine art photos, public domain engravings, T-shirts, mixed media collages, etc…as long as I keep the theme to the victorian era. So, the business name plus my personal name with bio under it, everywhere I sell…I think?
