Tavar Zawacki 🇺🇸 Above Street Art • Print Release, by digitalroach on May 1, 2009 23:23:28 GMT 1, ATTENTION ALL MEMBERS: I have received several personal messages (and can only assume Above has thru his website email) asking about where to post the comments for the print giveaway. I suggest since we are on this forum that we talk about it here.
Unless not many people talk about it,then we will use another forum....

Tavar Zawacki 🇺🇸 Above Street Art • Print Release, by karengolden on May 2, 2009 0:25:54 GMT 1, Hello Digitalroach: When the print was released there were many people talking about the special edition orange and green edition and how it was very similar to Ireland's flag colours. Perhaps it was in defense on both sides (of Ireland or of England) but people seemed to be quite emotional about Above's choice of colours and England's UNION JACK flag that is traditionally red and blue. The interesting part is that the special orange and green edition of 20 is close to selling out, so go figure?

Tavar Zawacki 🇺🇸 Above Street Art • Print Release, by karengolden on Oct 12, 2009 8:19:06 GMT 1, We forgot to mention that each and every new city from Above's city series will be extremely intimate in size and quality.
Above insisted to keep each city from his "city series" to be a small run of 25 per edition, and every print to have a personalized hand finished touch to each and every print.

He spent a great deal of time hand finishing each and every 25 in the edition. Yep we know its a price that is very low for the amount of detail and personal time spent on each print. This is what Above insisted on for his "City series" edition!

We wanted to upload a photo of the special "arrow edition" (10) of the FIRST LOVE print. Many of you asked to see a photo of this particular edition so this photo will have to due for now. Either today or tomorrow we will upload a better photo so you can see the beautiful details. There is also an A/p edition (10) as well so we will upload those photos soon. Each of the arrows, and the "grass" you see in this print were hand finished in watercolor by Above.

Tavar Zawacki 🇺🇸 Above Street Art • Print Release, by karengolden on Oct 21, 2009 23:54:52 GMT 1, Thanks for the feedback G-man and Cadellaw. The response seems to be great and G-man you are correct, this print would be a beautiful addition to any kids (or adults) wall. The holiday season is around the corner and this print would be a great holiday present to a loved one or family member. Not to mention a valentines present as well, assuming it's not already sold out by then?

Tavar Zawacki 🇺🇸 Above Street Art • Print Release, by karengolden on Oct 22, 2009 17:06:10 GMT 1, That's an interesting point ozychilds about the limited arrow version versus the regular normal edition. I would suggest you (and any others) interested in the arrow edition (10) should really consider PM me or contact me normally via email karengolden1@gmail.com because Above insists that I send out the hidden link and info in an email to people that have specifically been interested in a particular print several hours ahead of going public with the link. Sorry about the lack of more photos of the arrow edtion and the A/P edition (10). More photos soon.

Tavar Zawacki 🇺🇸 Above Street Art • Print Release, by karengolden on Oct 29, 2009 2:56:57 GMT 1, Thanks for the positive feedback Slipway, we appreciate your support for this city series. You did notice that Above is matching up a nice font that is relative to each city/country for this edition. For the ABOVE PARIS edition it was a traditional art nouveau letter font. I'm not 100% sure but I think this font for the ABOVE NYC print he used the NYTimes font? This edition is selling very well and we are pleased by everyone's support. I know Above has a lot of new prints in the pipeline to be released soon but I think the next city for this edition will be released before the end of the 2009 year?

Tavar Zawacki 🇺🇸 Above Street Art • Print Release, by karengolden on Oct 29, 2009 17:54:37 GMT 1, Thanks for the question Slipway. Yes, I can only assume there will be an ABOVE LONDON print for this city series?! I just don't know when? I only find out 1 print in advance so I can inform others of what is to be expected to arrive. Above decides when to release, price and obviously what city he wants to print next. If you have not already I suggest you email me (karengolden1@gmail.com) and join our mailing list. I send out an email to his collectors, and fans hours ahead of going live with this info. This edition only has 3 left. Good luck to those last 3 out there.

Tavar Zawacki 🇺🇸 Above Street Art • Print Release, by karengolden on Nov 3, 2009 19:12:18 GMT 1, Good day to everyone,
As promised here are photos of the special "ARROW EDITION." There are only 11 of these made. The difference between this edition is that the interior of the arrows are screen printed and not hand finished personally by Above. There is also only 10 available in the hand finished edition. Excuse the rather bad quality photos for such a beautiful print. It looks like Above used metallic gold in the girl's dress, and metallic red in the arrows. I'm going to work on getting better photos but because of all of the emails and pm's I thought something to look at is better than nothing?
