wow !!! i haven't even researched it yet lol , thank you for the info greg.
just from the feel of it, and the craftsmanship ,made me buy it , and it was nicely and clearly labeled .

 

I'm not a pottie and even I know Colorado School of Mines = Money. Congrats!

 

You mean University of North Dakota School of Mines, right?

 

Yep. I've been thinking about my great-grandfather lately, and he went to the other one...wires, crossed. Check.

 

Brad, have you heard of the traveling red chair? It has it's own Facebook page, twitter feed and a blog.

that is an excellent idea

 

do you guys (and girls) think i should start a facebook page for my chair ?

 

Have not heard of it. Have heard of the roaming gnome and the red hat society. Maybe I should put a gnome on my chair with a red hat

 

Didn't one of the experts tell you not to put out to much information on the net until you know for sure?

 

your jewels are gorgeous Marko
some great finds brad - I love the crow by Courtney Putnam

 

I also like it a lot. There is a soft quality to the encaustic process that is appealing. I have not been able to find what her original works go for but even some of the new prints are a bit pricey. Her more recent encaustic paintings also seem to be generally smaller than this.

I really want a Japanese block print of a crow by Ohara Koson (Shoshon) but this might have to do for now since a real Koson is not cheap.

 

those are nice prints, crows are vey cool birds

 

he told me not to go to the media yes ,but he also took my money and said he was going to issue a certificate , said it would take a few weeks to get here as he wanted to do some more testing , then he was waiting for his new microscope , nov7 , now he hasn't said a thing , and hasn't returned my emails .

 

How much did he charge you?

 

i'm thinking show up on his door step on aug 3 , say it's been a year what have you got for me

 

$4,000 to start

 

I would be panicking if I hadn't heard from him after all this time.

 

the only thing he is questioning now is how it got from here to there and back again , Sun 2016-10-16, 1:51 PM was the last time i heard from him. and don't get me wrong it's not about the money (altho that would be nice) it's that i was right and was able to find it after all these years of looking for anything like it, I'm sure you all will confer with me it's a rush lol

 

i know just how you feel lol
