Thoughts about Big Bang Art (in a non-specific way)

Okay, this question is for the Big Bang writers on my flist.

A bit of context. I'm currently signed up for the [livejournal.com profile] gabriel_bigbang, which has a January deadline. Here's the thing: I have only a vague idea about what I might write, and instead I've been struck by the insane notion that I might want to do art for it instead.

Now, I am not an artist. In fact, I can barely manage stick figures on some days. On good days, however, if I work really really hard, sometimes I produce stuff that I actually like.

That being said, I am worried. I don't want to inflict my art on some poor unsuspecting writer who's expecting, I dunno, talent, as opposed to gobs and gobs of enthusiasm and a lot of sweat and blood and tears.

So, writers, what are your thoughts when you find out the identity of your artist? Have you ever had misgivings upon seeing what they've done in the past and been pleasantly surprised? Have you ever had an artist whose work you just didn't like? How did that work out for you?

I'm looking for opinions, anecdotal evidence, anything at all. I'm just not sure that my plan isn't insane.
