Aye, putting down the money is easy, picking up the print can be a bit more difficult...

Not much guidance needed; join the facebook groups and keep an eye out for new commissions or openings. There are a few around just have to dig and search for them.

thanks - very familiar with how it works with comic book artists, just trying to get a bit of an education on it for prints/paper.

I'll search around on FB and see what I can see . . . :pint:

You think the ones in the rain are buying art for their own walls?

eh, the first couple will probably buy an OG that they will pay for with the other posters but after that it's an ebay slugfest

If someone is going to wait in the rain all day to make a couple bucks on a flip. More power to them. Anything I buy today is for my personal collection. I'm just happy my favorite gallery is doing something big with one of the most talented Artist in the game right now and I could show some love in person.

Favorite gallery?
You bet - my 2 favorite print artists.

Hopped onboard when they first got involved with AJ Masthay in 2012.
Now they have all of his prints, pretty much.
