Jeez. Tin showing along side of Sas, eh. Movin' up in the world...and fast. Quite impressive! In true Copro fashion, look for tin's prices to shoot up substantially for this show. But with his pieces flying off gallery walls in the blink of an eye, it seems a decent price increase is in line.
And personally, I can't get into the above tin piece. The main appeal of tin's work, at least for me, is the sensual nature of his female characters..all of which have been "of age" prior to this piece. The infant vibe doesn't fit into tin's style. A little too cutesy...which is part of the reason I can't get into Amy Sol's stuff. A little too 'strawberry shortcake-ish'.

Yeah...As if it weren't official yet, it is now....You rule! It's a rare thing for such fine talent to be coupled with such overwhelming modesty and generosity. Just awesome! Please understand that I was in no way referring to you instigating a price increase yourself. I've read your comments on this board about how you feel on that subject. It's just become a rite of passage for Gary at Copro to up price levels, more than a reasonable level, when various "hot" artists come through his gallery. Hell, the guy sold 2 KMNDZ drawings for $1100 at the Hi-Fructose Group show due to the demand, when a month later I bought an even stronger drawing for $450 from Mark Murphy's SDCC Superhero exhibit. But there are many examples, for which this is only one.
btw. The Botanist is still cultivating her weaponized squash. Harvest is right around the corner, so look out!

Hm.... I personally like his less seductive pieces. I guess we won't be fighting over the same paintings then

Just scored this piece this morning. So happy to finally be getting a tin og to add to my collection. Now all i have left on my checklist is a Huot and Camille piece, and i'll have gotten most on my list for this year.
