I really need to update some of the traded/sold pieces in the first post of the thread, so my actual collection is "current". Most of the items i sold/traded were later pound and bunk roughs to go toward finals... Anyway, when this came up i had to have it despite the bananas high price tag and worked out a much better (still crazy) deal with the seller. Definitely one of my OS favorites! OS8 Waffle Ira/ Griddled Greta  ***gasps ...so b e a u t i f u llllllllllllllllll....

Huge thanks to Rahul for this bad boy! I loved this from the second i saw it  . The details in this are amazing, and i'm not the only one who loves checking it out! Also, i updated the first post in this thread so everything *should* be current.

Damn, that is one of my favorite Diaz finals. I remember seeing that when it was for sale a while ago and the details in the pic were amazing so I imagine in person they are incredible! I wonder how long it took LD to paint the final.

Couldnt think of a better collection for him to be in, he'll have a great time amongst all the other great art!

I wonder how long it took LD to paint the final. I'll try to get some close ups of the detailed areas. I really enjoy staring at this one  , Rahual did a great frame up too! I don't think I ever congratulated you on this piece.I'm just floored by it.Total jaw dropper and centerpiece of your collection. Thanks Chris!, i'm still in love with this one and should have it framed up in a week or two.

I went with Ricky but both were among of my favorites from that series.

Gigantic thank-you to one of the UG's coolest dudes, Rahul. We swapped my Buff Grim Jim for his Hidden Hayden. I'm really running out of wall space and thought these would display better together, plus i like the Magritte reference.

I love how you used neutral colors which ending up making the art stand out more!

I love how you used neutral colors which ending up making the art stand out more! I probably spent about 45 minutes mixing mats to come up with the combo for Perry. It looked like a bomb went off on the counter. The rest were advice from the framer and a combination of some of what Mark used on Half Nelson and Burne when he had them. Also, good to see you posting again!

It’s been awhile since I’ve updated my thread courtesy of photobucket, but I have a few things to add. Unfortunately no OS, but some cool stuff. Steve is gonna love this one, a “Trumpacracy” wacky. It was pretty cheap and it’s pretty funny IMO.

This one is by Sean Pacheco. I think this was a piece done for a show he did with Bunk. It’s definitely done in Sean’s funky style. Love it or hate it, he can paint!

Those time consuming little ones!
