HARLAND MILLER TRADE, by firstimer on Jun 6, 2017 16:29:26 GMT 1, Edit: Inundated with inbox offers for "Happiness" trade. Lovely image, brilliant printing technique - just not for me. Please keep offers to penguin books, cheers! A lot of messages coming through - will respond as quickly as possible to all. What a great forum this is!
------------------------------------
Hi guys - hope all are well.
I'm NOT looking to sell, becoming a big HM fan - just putting feelers out there to see what the interest would be in a Miller trade.
I have just acquired a true hand finished working proof of "I AM THE ONE I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR". (2016).
Miller's words behind the HF AP:
"I was going to paint the surrounding white area a sliver or grey and tried it out in that corner - i changed my mind but thought it looked great like that so decided to leave it"
Although grey in the image, it is a mix of silver and grey in person.
As much as I love this, especially with the extra detailing, my wife is also a fan of Miller but says the color of this particular book doesn't match the home's interior.  (She's an interior designer)
If anyone would be interested in a change of scenery on your walls with a like for like swap (same large format size, same artist, different penguin book) please reach out.
I have already sent it to get framed, however its currently being flattened; meaning I can stop the process and send it unframed (or framed) depending on your location. The piece is now in Los Angeles.
Let the "newbie" crucification begin. Cheers.

HARLAND MILLER TRADE, by badgersurf on Jun 6, 2017 17:47:11 GMT 1, So it looks like there are three options, two easy and one more difficult. Guess it comes down to which one is most affordable:
Easy - change the interior or change the wife (not sure how attached you have become to either of them)
Hard: find some one will to swap for the right HM print.

"Offload"? Or trade for a HF that you are offering?

I'd be willing to bet a bit of both.

All I'm saying is, if that many people are tripping over themselves to trade away a print that is basically brand new, I think it says a lot about how they feel about the image...

I hear you. I love mine Hapiness personally but also would happily trade it for this heavily HF large format print. Small vs large, HF vs not. Kind of a no brainer is all. Not sure it has a lot to do with the image. Both are great imo.

What's being offered:
The above print in exchange for a like for like spec different book cover: Large format, classic penguin, ideally hand finished (true hand finished)
Not in relation to the question below, but just a complete tangent: To say Harland's work means a lot to me would be an understatement  - There are plenty of factors that make his pieces important to me - I'm British but work in LA. I met him at my work place which is also where I first discovered his work - on the walls of my place of employment. Turns out we are from the same area in the UK. He is the first artist I ever saved up my hourly wage earnings to buy art for. I've met a few artists that many here love thanks to my day job, and thankfully, Harland's kindness and personality lives up to his art. There have been a couple of artists I used to love, but because of their attitude when I met them, I have completely gone off their work, which is a shame (but good for my bank account ) So yeah, HM is kind of a don in my eyes.
After writing this novel that came from nowhere, maybe I do need to sack the interior designer and keep my print lol. (hope she doesn't read this)

HARLAND MILLER TRADE, by skynet on Jun 7, 2017 20:37:25 GMT 1, As an owner of a completely hand finished unique HM, It's hard to tell from this picture what is exactly hand finished other than the grey section. I would imagine that anyone interested in trading a HM for another, would reason it's fair to expect a comparable amount of hand finishing . Perhaps it would be helpful if you provided additional detail so members are enticed to offer the trade you are seeking. Best of luck with your search...beautiful work to keep, regardless of the interior designer

Surely there are interested members here on the forum looking for a great HM image!

You should consider donating your wife to a worthy cause- then you can feel good about yourself & enjoy your art ๐
