Swoon - Snow Blossoms Print, by freezy on Apr 13, 2017 21:57:46 GMT 1, I just received my hand finished print. I have to say... I expected more. The only addition to the print was pink spray paint. I really thought that there would be some hand painted elements or additional silk screening or stenciling. The examples that appeared on the site during the sale were all more interesting than what I received. When I wrote to LSC and asked when the print would be delivered, they said "it would be worth the wait." I had somewhat high expectations based on their statement and that it is Swoon. I am honestly a bit let down. The hand finishing on my print couldn't have taken longer than a few seconds.

Swoon - Snow Blossoms Print, by The Observer on Apr 13, 2017 22:09:28 GMT 1, Received mine as well. Lots of heavy cooper spray paint that gives it a sunset sort of feel. Probably didn't take long but I do think it looks really unique and it is going to fit perfectly with my homes style. I like it a lot.

Swoon - Snow Blossoms Print, by freezy on Apr 17, 2017 15:17:56 GMT 1, It was shipped flat between two sturdy pieces of wood and taped all around. It was quite heavy. $60 is a lot... but the way it was packaged, I'm not surprised.

Gotcha. I guess it makes sense. How's the print in person? Any photos?

Photos of mine are above. As I stated... Nice print. I was not that impressed with the hand finished ones.

Here is mine.
I'll conur with Freezy. I think the print work is great. The hand finishing adds nothing, and for the first time I think I would have been happier with the standard addition.

All I see is a bunch of ugly random paint drops. that is supposed to make it more desirable/valuable?

Swoon - Snow Blossoms Print, by sin on Apr 18, 2017 20:14:58 GMT 1, Yeah, I share that opinion. It feels mailed in and I wont make the mistake again. LSC is usually a quality shop but these are the only time I have purchased a hand finished piece and felt like I paid more and got less.

Swoon - Snow Blossoms Print, by Icesay on Apr 18, 2017 20:18:02 GMT 1, I really like it but could never buy it. Just too close to a feature wall wallpaper...kinda looks like the background to an image that isn't there. Having said that very gf friendly which is quite rare.

Swoon - Snow Blossoms Print, by The Observer on Jun 14, 2017 13:10:57 GMT 1, That is really nice and I am happy for you, but I can't help but feel that I got shafted. My random sprays and paint drops does not come close to that level of detail from the artist. I do like the print i received, but these handpainted like the pink and purple above are another level.

The pink on a few of these gives some focus and elevates this above wallpaper but a number of the hf are kinda lame.
