Looking for local Miami 2D artist to work as partner on iPad game

I am in the process of starting up a small indie game development company. So far we are just two software engineers with extensive iPhone/iPad app development. We are based in south Florida (North Miami).

We are looking for a 2D artist (preferably pixel art) to partner up with us on development of our first iPad game. We have very little startup capital which is why we are looking for someone to partner up with us. Compensation would be based on a percentage earned by the game sales and being a partner in the project means you would also have input on the game design itself, we will talk all the details before anything gets started. It is also important that you are local to South Florida. Work can be done much faster if we can all meet face to face.
