“Cello – Original painting – (Editions of 5 2AP’s) – 16″ x 20”

Description CCTV: Edition notes: Maximum of 5 numbered editions with 2 artist proofs.  Please note that the image featured is of Edition #1 of 5.  Editions #1- #5 are sold.  Remaining available editions are AP #1 & AP #2. Original painting process: Unless otherwise noted, everything I create is painted using artist-grade acrylic spray paint, applied through hand-cut multilayered stencils, made from my own original illustrations. Articles are printed on archival paper and collaged in the background to give depth, context & texture.  Paintings are done on a 1.5in deep gallery wrapped canvas, and come ready to hang. How do “Editions” work?: One of the unique things about stencil art is the ability to paint multiple variants (referred to as “Editions”) using the same stencil sets.  In order to ensure long term collectability, original paintings are limited to numbered editions of 1, 3, 5, or 10.  Each variant is hand collaged with unique articles, hand painted using the original stencil set, and will have minor variations throughout the piece making it completely one of a kind.  The max quantities of each paintings editions are determine when I paint the first original, and each edition will be labeled on the back at the time of creation (example: “The Great Dictator” edt. # 2 of 2).  After the first edition is painted I typically paint subsequent editions 1 or 2 at a time, in order, as they sell, until the edition line is complete.  (example:  I paint edition #1, and a collector purchases it.  After #1 has sold, I paint #2 and #3.  After #2 and #3 have sold I paint #4, etc…).  In most cases all printed reproductions are based on a high resolution scan of Edition #1. What is an “AP” or “Artist Proof Edition”?: Sometimes there is a special circumstance where one or two paintings are created outside of the standard edition set, and those paintings will be labeled as “AP’s” or “Artist Proofs”.  This happens VERY RARELY and will be noted on the piece.  An example of this would be: Three special versions of “Legalize Feelings” were created in order to take part in a news cast where I showed my painting process live on King5 News (video here: HERE). These versions are labeled on the back as “King 5 AP #1 of 3”.
