Acaeum Artwork - Who wants to go again?
	Page 9 of 12 • 1 2 3 ... 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 11 12

Poll: From those artists already mentioned, let's do a quick poll and see who gets the most hits for their first choice (I'm guessing it'll be Holloway or Elmore).

Clyde Caldwell	7%	[ 5 ]
Tim Truman	1%	[ 1 ]
Bill Willingham	6%	[ 4 ]
Jim Roslof	15%	[ 11 ]
Jeff Easley	24%	[ 17 ]
Gerald Brom	6%	[ 4 ]
Larry Elmore	20%	[ 14 ]
Jim Holloway	11%	[ 8 ]
Tom Wham	8%	[ 6 ]
Other (Please Specify)	1%	[ 1 ]

Total votes : 71

I thought Caldwell might get more love than he is getting. Otherwise, the poll is panning out as I thought it might.

I have a plan so cunning, you could put a tail on it and call it a weasel.

I'll call dibs on that now...

I put in for Caldwell, though I will be happy with any of the frontrunners right now.

Kill something, it will make you feel better.

Get a ten sided die ... Roll it ... And I would be happy with whichever artist is chosen. :wink:

But do it soon ... These guys aren't getting any younger. Neither am I for that matter. Now I am off to find a good framer.

I was able to get my EO print framed at Michaels with a very nice frame and museum quality glass for $225. That' s with the 60% off coupon. If you do not have a coupon the price will be horrible. I always have the coupon. They also run a 55% off sale about every six weeks.

I like Michaels because the gal their really likes the art I bring. They give me really good service. However, for my high-end pieces I go to a mom and pop store. Price is higher but the gal really know how to match frames and matts and use different techniques (double framing, shadowing, layering) to create great pieces.

Martin,

So I can send my print for framing to you then?

Do we get to see a picture at some point?

Best,

Paul

Even a stopped clock tells the right time twice a day, and for once I'm inclined to believe...we are indeed drifting into the arena of the unwell.

Here's what mine looks like:

You can't tell, but the dark mat is dark green. My frame job cost more than $225.00 :oops:

I got museum glass and had it done at a mom & pop place. But I really like it, and that's what matters.

Truth is worth finding and life is too short to work for money.

Irrespective of my feeling for the actual artwork, that looks stunning.

Great choice of frame and mat

benjoshua,

Wow! That looks great. I do not think mine will look that good. Like I said, I took it to Michaels instead of the mom and pop place. In framing, you definately get what you pay for.
