Crazy Jake print pre-release SOLD OUT, by Michael Jacob on May 26, 2009 16:49:30 GMT 1, ***UPDATE*** All pieces are sold. Many thanks to the forum!
Hello all,
Its been a while since Ive posted any new artwork.
My Obama print was very well received here in the States. Here is a recent clip, check out: abclocal.go.com/wls/video?id=6783402
It has allowed me to get my foot in the doors of some great galleries. I have been spending alot of time working on a large show I hope to put on later this year. Im in final talks with a prominent NYC gallery, so Ill keep you posted. The show will have many originals and a few prints to go with them. The gallery has asked that I dont show it until the show. Im really jazzed about it, and the body of works has received huge support from the people reviewing it.
having said that, this forum was my birthplace in terms of art. I just did a small piece of art, its only A4 in size. The edition size is 20, and I will only be selling it here. The title is "20/20".
As those of you who know me, I like CRAZY deals. If you prepay for the print, sight unseen, its only $20 USD. After its released, its going to be 20 Pounds (still a great deal IMO). Its like a grab bag you used to get as a kid. Postage will be an additional $10 USD. Let me know if there are any early buyers! I will post an image on Friday. I posted about this a while ago and mentioned the first person responding would get a free one, and its going to Retroboy!
Thanks again for everyones support, none of this would be happening if it weren't for this forum.

ps Im also putting the finishing touches on a website (long overdue). It sould be done mid to late july. www.michaeljacobstudio.com

Crazy Jake print pre-release SOLD OUT, by Michael Jacob on May 26, 2009 17:40:23 GMT 1, Thanks everyone. I too hope this is my rebirth on the forum. Im happy to say that every edition I did is sold out. In dealing with the gallery I want to make sure I can do prints outside of our contract. Originally, they wanted everything to go through them. Im hoping to only give them rights to items specific to the show.

Crazy Jake print pre-release SOLD OUT, by Michael Jacob on May 27, 2009 13:58:54 GMT 1, Thanks for the kind words from everyone. The piece is now sold out. Who says cheap art cant be fun? One piece goes to retroboy, two single-piece buyers and another forum member bought the rest.
