I'm just gonna print the jpg on identical paper with my Pro-100. No one will know difference.

$500 for 8x10 inkjet? I really wanna know what the people that bought that do with their disposable income.

Says the one with a eb collection of 42 pages of art. 42! drymount. I thought I had a lot.

Buy what you love man. I rather Mike get my money versus regretting passing on this later and paying way more of a mark up to someone who only sees dollar signs. I'm 34 birds deep and pending 37. I love art just like you obviously so how can you possibly judge on that?

Besides petty bickery aside the background story behind this bird makes complete sense to do it this way. Sorry you can't see that. 29 others hopefully today see that. Time will tell.
drymount your sig!

I like Mike. I like his fat birds. But I just paid approximately $500 for an original Teagan White painting. Framed.

For the price of this giclee print, one could get 2 or 3 original paintings or drawings of birds by some very able artists out there. I just offer this as a bit of perspective.

Anyone know what happened to the new SW portrait Mike mentioned finishing a couple months ago?

I assume at this point Mondo might $ave the it for a May 4th cash grab.
