Never thought I would own anything from him and to be honest, not all of his paintings appeal to me. But highbrow helped me get this drawing and I love it. Always have been tempted by this sculpture as well. May have to pull the trigger on it one day...

Joe Sorren rules. I own a few prints but none framed yet. However, I did have "Upon Teresa at the Dot" and "Mother and Child" framed, but they were given to my mom as Xmas gifts the past couple years. I wanted "Mother & child" for myself but uh... my mom deserved to have it - she saved my arse from self destruction last year. Teresa.. is epic. Not sure the size but it's the largest print I've ever seen. The framing for these pieces cost me $900 and $600 respectively.
Sorren ranked on my top 5 artists for a long time. But honestly, I can't connect with the stuff in has past couple shows. That doesn't diminish his greatness or my reverence for his work though.
Anyway, great score Sleep. My only hope for a Sorren OG is probably a drawing as well.
Last cool note: I like how Joe Sorren will call you personally to confirm your print orders. No one else that I know of does that.

Hung, I am so very glad you are happy with the piece, in person it is truly amazing. I do not think you will see anymore Sorren drawings ( at least on my end ) I am so upset that I had over spent and was unable to pull the trigger on it myself. i am very happy with mine and again glad you are happy with yours. ( we are sorren pencil brothers, like blood brothers without the blood ) If i could ever figure out how to post pics i would

Sweet drawing Hung - one of my favorite artists. I'm finally taking my print of "BUMP" to the framer next week - will post pics when I get it back. I may have to move my Princess Sputnik to another wall - I need a big wall for this one! 44" x 36" before framing! jIm

Ironically I have actually been back and forth with Joe's sister Amy about buying this sculpture the last couple weeks. Haven't decided whether to pull the trigger yet! jIm

Will have to wait as well since there is a major purchase coming up that I have to account for (need to sell some stuff). Would love to see this in person one day before I decide. I wonder if anyone has one in the LA area...

sorry folks, no current corrina pictures - she's now residing in a cardboard box until we finish unpacking, but i'll try and post on soon enough - if i knew where my camera was, that is there is an old picture in my collection thread over on limited addiction though if you be bothered to peek. and i also agree about the theresa print. epic. totally commands the room. the single biggest thing i own i think, although my tim karpinsky og may be a bit longer...
