Thanks for the framed pic, Ally. I can't wait to see my Paulley in person! I am so EXCITED! I have only been following the art scene for a year and a half or so and this is my very first OG, guys. Tin, you have taken my "art virginity" and I am thrilled!!!

Tin,

I like the older work and personally do not see anything wrong or to be upset y if you were using it for practice or refernce point. Regardless congrats on the great show at black maria and looking forward to gettng my items in the mail and hanging them up ( along with the 7 or 8 prints of yours I have to frame ) thanks again

yes thats my older work...i practiced alot from photos before i got a chance at this art scene...it was practice so i could understand what i could and couldnt do with pastels.im glad i did it because it helped me understand what i could do-but im NOT glad i scanned the practice art and put it in my journal back then.i really should have kept it to myself and not shown it in my journal..i never used my older art for any art shows..i still use photo referance but now i use it sparingly combined with imaginary stuff....im sorry if that art upsets you, i never thought it would be cared about.i really did'nt believe i would make it in this scene.

Dude, nothing to apologize for. I think most artists do that. And i think that this piece is beautiful, regardless of where the inspiration came from. Your talent is undeniable man, as is evident by the demand for your pieces. I happily dropped a pretty penny for an og, and i'm glad i did.....keep doing your thing.

Btw, did you do a commission piece for Long Gone John? If so, can you describe it...size etc...any pics? Just curious as i'm a fan of his documentary.

i own the original piece by tin that's in question above - not an inch of me is bothered by your approach on this earlier piece. i'm proud beyond belief to have it in my collection of tin originals.

congratulations tin on your continuing success and amazing growth. i feel distinctly fortunate to have been able to acquire your work early on and to be able to see the amazing things that you continue to do.

Tin, your work is wonderful and you should source your inpiration and studies from any medium. You are the artist and your fans value your interpretation of the world around us.

TIN,

So amazed at the Wood box, it just arrived today, the drawing, the painting and the prints all amazing, I am off to the framers to get the box top and drawing framed ( any ideas anyone ) I was so excited to get it I had them ship it before the piece I bought at the show was shipped. I will post pictures tonight when I get home, help need framing ideas my box top is the one Ally posted pictures of

[highbrow]

The box is truly amazing, A great thing, the painting on the cover, the drawing inside and all three prints are truly amazing, Wow do I have alot to frame, any ideas on framing the box cover?





Last one is the drawing, did not take images of the prints sorry, but again a painting on the cover, all three prints, and a wonderful drawing could not beat that for 700 ( I think, might have been 750 )

Amazing, photos do not do justice

[sleepboy]

Very nice Cory. I'd be interested to see what the other boxes look like.

Definitely a steal at $700.

[highbrow]

Yes SLEEP, very excited to get it, also cant wait for next week when the piece I purchased arrives, I am also very curious to see what other boxes looked like

[highbrow]

Well the box top has been shipped to the framer hopefully he will do a great job in two days should land in Culver city for framing, turn around time a week tops ( only took three days to frame Shepard HPM ) so hopefully the framer has a good idea

[dellboyy]

Looking pretty good, love the sketch! Be good to see what the other boxes look like!

[droow2]

OOOO got back from Parcelforce this afternoon.

These sketches are absolutley gorgeous so far!!

AND I got 3 x 1/50's!!! Melanie I love you,you'll be getting a pint when you're in Newcastle next!

[highbrow]

Only two boxes purchased on the board, also if anyone purchased anything from the show have they gotten it yet?

[ziggy1]

I believe Melanie said they were going to ship this week.

By the way, there is a Tin piece that is still available at the latest Copro Nason show.

[dellboyy]

Cool, i was wondering when they were going out... i assumed they would be on display at the show until it finished?

Just to add, the one at Copro Nason is here:

I am so twempted toi grab the one at Corpo but yet other artists are now taking my money for the next few months at least, also just got back my wood box top framed and will post pictures tonight when I get home

[highbrow]

Well I tried for the last time to get my work framed locally and have decided to suck it up and mail each work to Culver city to be framed. I know this is not the post for it but I took my woodbox top from the Tin limited set around to three local framers prior to mailing it out ( and it getting lost and found thank god ) needless to say everyones price was 3 times more then Culver City even after I added in shipping to and from. regardless here is the top framed really went back and fourth but could not find a frame that fit well so went black.

[highbrow]

Well my Tin drawing arrived fromt he Black Maria Show ( thanks Ally ) and it is truly amazing ( sadly I have to take to the framers as there seems to be a hair or something trapped to the glass ) but all in all it is truly an amazing work



Sorry about the outlet cover I order some black ones waiting fro them to arrive


Here is the string,hair something no worries easy fix at the framers tomorrow ( I hope ), well that is it now to send the drawing that came with the limited box off to framers sometime this week ( I hate paying to frame things dam it )

[leroy]

It looks great Highbrow, even with the hair! I love the bunny-bees. Tin has a great sense of design.

[highbrow]

It has since been reframed ( well cleaned ) and the drawing from the box set also framed to match Bunny and Bees now I have to find a place to hang all the tin works ( two drawings, 2 paintings and the box cover ) once I do I will get some images of them all

[dellboyy]

Finally got this out of customs, rather happy indeed! ;D
