Do you want to tell us what the latest plan is? 8)
Sure! We don’t want to keep anyone in the dark do we? 😆
Seriously though. 😉
We’ve decided to do the labradorite griffins (should I rename them? Storm griffins? Cloud griffins? Would that be better or more confusing?? Labradorite is a big crunchy word) as an open artist’s edition. What this means is this:“Open” means that there is no set number of griffins I will do in this coloration. I could do 5, I could do 8. However since they take at LEAST a full week to do, I’m the only person that’s making them, they are fully hand painted, AND I gotta work on other stuff (like the family!) they will ALWAYS be rare. I sincerely doubt I could make more than 10 of these a year even if I wanted to- they just take too long.
They will be signed, numbered, and dated. So that you can tell which griffin I painted first, second, third…. etc. As these are an open edition they will not be numbered like Melody’s limited edition stuff (i.e. 1/25). They will simply have a number, which indicates what number griffin it is.
Each one will look like the first labradorite griffin in my gallery, but as they are all hand painted with brushes and no stencils are used, and I mix all my colors custom… they will have minor variations. Each one will be subtly unique but still part of the edition.
As far as we’ve discussed, these’ll only be sold though eBay.
I hope that helps? Nothing is 100% final until we say it is so on the auction itself. 😉

😀 😀 😀 That sounds just fabulous!! 😀
(I like ‘Cloud Griffins’ as they seem a bit pale for ‘Storm Griffins.’)
May 16, 2007 at 5:13 pm #577590I don’t mind lab griffins – except that it’s maybe too similar to the lap dragons… I like that plan anyway!

That’s a great plan! 😀
May 16, 2007 at 6:26 pm #577592*does mad Snoopy dance* That’s wonderful news! An open artist editions is a genius idea! Kudoos to whomever thought of it!
And thanks, Nam, for being willing to paint multiples of the same thing. It sounds like it’s not your favorite thing.
May 16, 2007 at 6:56 pm #577593Oh sweet. So maybe everyone who wants one will be able to get it. I don’t think my collection will ever be complete. hehe
May 16, 2007 at 7:16 pm #577594😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀
*Dances around VERY happily*
Call them Labrador Griffin’s, Kill the “-ite”, and the “-ian” affixes and then it’s still more descriptive and still different enough from the “Lap Dragon” problem!!
Must get at least 1 of these babies!!!
AND the other members of the family!!😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀
May 16, 2007 at 7:59 pm #577595😀 😀 😀 YAY!!!!!! 😀 😀 😀
I like Labrador Griffins too!!!
May 16, 2007 at 8:36 pm #577596I can’t get excited yet since I’m not sure what an open artist edition means???

It means that they don’t know how many of that peice will get painted. Whatever happens, happens. 😀
May 16, 2007 at 9:03 pm #577598That’s it in a nutshell 😉
May 16, 2007 at 9:07 pm #577599sort of like a new line to paint from a new artist??
May 16, 2007 at 10:45 pm #577600Soooo. When can we expect the first one to go on Ebay???
Annnnddd, can we expect a momma and chicks???
