Yeah that's wild... I am usually terrible with drops but somehow managed to score one. A blind squirrel, right?

I mean I could always send it your way along with a few others things if you let me pick up a certain something in NYC and keep it for myself :pint:

Yup, less than half of both editions were available. Pretty shitty, IMO. The remaining half will be marked up substantially. :roll:

Can't complain on this one got lucky when someone else didn't complete the checkout in 5 minutes. Really excited to get this framed with the Dancer I have already up.

that might have been me. i had one carted and decided to pass at the "complete order" screen. was surprised to see all the posts about the quick sellout as it didn't appear to be that hard. sounds like i just got lucky this time around.

I miss me a good ol' Whatson drop. Not the biggest fan but I can dig this print. Snoozed on the drop. May have went for it. Oof on the Giclee printing.

Yeah it's a giclee, but then all of Martin's work on them is HF, so I think these will look great in person!

Go OIL! :clap:

Thanks for the link. That butterfly is sold now. Really nice piece of art. I like the Cello Player and it is still available. Them two untitled Pez's prints are nice too.
