"Cupid's Garden" Sheet Music Restoration and Backstory


Yesterday, we made a video, (the first of many such videos) detailing the process of how we restore vintage art so it can be made available for sale as prints. Although it's really nothing too special, we think it does give a bit of an insight into our process in a way that most things wouldn't. But we think that's a good enough plan. When we embarked on this crazy experiment in August, we wanted to figure out a way to keep your finger on the pulse, (so to speak,) and this is the only idea that stood out. It has real visual and practical value so you at least know what you're getting--and what we've been up to.
But here's the really exciting part: we plan to make many more such videos, and we'll be sure you get to see them. We'll be posting one new video every two weeks, and of course, we'll find ways of letting you know when we've posted them.

If you didn't get a chance to see our "Cupid's Garden" video yet, you can watch it below.


Before we go, I've got one more thing I'd like to say...
Some of you might have been wondering who we are. And I don't mean "what is Dominion Graphic Arts". I mean, "who is really behind Dominion Graphic Arts..."
With that, I'd like to introduce myself. My name is Sebastian Certik, and I've been a huge fan of vintage art and illustration since I discovered L. Frank Baum's Oz Books at twelve years old. When I was nineteen, I tried to start a publishing business specializing in illustrated books from the Golden Age of illustration, (roughly between 1870 and 1960). Unfortunately, that didn't quite pan out as I would have hoped, but here I am again, using the lessons I've learned to build something new.
I'd love it if you could join us on this journey towards creating a revolutionary new aesthetic, and I hope to see more of you in the months to come.

Before you go, I wanted to share a little secret with you... I want you to be a part of something big. The thing is, when we launch, we want you to knw about it. After all, we don't want you to be left out, especially when something this exciting is going on.

That's why we're prepared to give you a $20 gift card, plus a chance to win two free prints, (collectively valued at $200,) if you'll join our VIP club. This offer will only be available to the first 50 subscribers, so if you haven't yet, please take advantage of this wonderful offer while you still can.

You have nothing to lose, and everything to gain.
