I`m going for the hand finished one myself. It`s a beautiful piece! I`m glad theres a 2 year no-resale agreement involved. Although that also means if I don`t get one this time, I wont be able to get one for 2 years!

super nice print. Love this artist

Would they not tell you before they are released? Email them to see!

And with regards to 2 years no resale- I like that too. There have only been a few pieces (in the female portrait style) sold by some well known auction house where the average Joe is outpriced.

Have you seen Cat? I really like the way the eyes match:

I was one of the average Joes who got priced out of this one:

Still bitter it went for so much over the estimate.

It's Avante Arte. You don't think they've already presold most of the edition?

[dullahmo]

Yeah me too. I`m unsure of their process but had absolutely no chance for the last print I wanted by Roby Dwi Antono.

I`m worried i`ll focus too much on the hand finished version and lose out on the ed of 40.

I saw this too- when I first saw it I thought that the white in the sleeve looks like a vampire tooth... I cannot unsee it now.

It is quite a jump- and Christie's too which I am surprised about. Are you looking to purchase a print tomorrow? 40 prints and 10 prints with an alternative drawing... I cannot wait.

I’ll probably regret it later, but I’m not going after this one… too many other purchases recently. I think it’s a strong image though.

Best print of early 2022 imho.
And I did not know about this artist before seeing this print!
Can’t wait to see it on collectors’ walls!

[sixsense]

I am so glad Avant Arte making edition for him. He definitely need more appreciation

[sixsense]

Yes, that's mine, have it for almost 10 years

I am from Hong Kong but recently relocated to the UK.

He is not so well known in Hong Kong unfortunately as he is not those kind of "hype" artist that you can always see in social media.

I am a bit ignorant about how it works to be honest- I asked in a post above... what is your experience with them?

They’re pretty good imo. They’ll be stock for all avenues. If you are interested you should email their collector email and see what they can do. Otherwise a good shot at fcfs isn’t too bad.

Anybody get one? I had a change of heart and tried to, but had some weird server error and then they were sold out.

[ca]

Passed, like the image but tired of spending around $1,000 for every print.

[dullahmo]

Managed to get a hand-finished piece. Really happy with it and I can`t wait to frame it up.

[Deleted]

I was really wanting this and then stupidly had a change of heart and now I really want it on my wall and its top late.

It is beautiful:(

[dullahmo]

The piece arrive today.
It looks absolutely stunning in person.

I managed to bag edition 1/10 and the exact hand finished version that I wanted

My favorite piece so far.

Will be an amazing investment and decoration on the wall once framed.

Please share some photos! I am a big fan of the artist and was really torn on buying one of these. Ultimately I didn’t pull the trigger but still regret not doing so!!

I got the 'Fan' print which is hand-finished with a picture of Freddie Mercury - very happy with this one.
