James Miller

@Reba that's a good idea on how to display your art

Jacob M

6:05

Damn 4x5’ is one big puppy!

Felix Lu

6:05

@JacobM...go look up Rob's Tradd SSB on CAF...it totally works for blowing up to that size

Andy k

6:05

No one hangs better than Reba

Rob Rusch

6:06

@Jacob yea...I didn't quite realize how big until it came in. Fortunately found a good place for it

Malvin

6:06

@jason wood.. I thinnk I saw you post about that missing portfolio!

Jacob M

6:06

Sweet I’ll check it out

Grant Riddle

6:06

Whew! That’s the Carson Wentz-iest pick I’ve seen all year.

Jason Wood

6:06

@Malvin haha...well then you know that, inexplicably, the portfolio was still there when I ran back!

Felix Lu

6:07

@Jason...close call...and a miracle for NYC...

Jacob M

6:07

I need to get some stuff framed. And figure out a better way to store. Keep it all in proper binders under the bed, but my dog sheds to high hell so I’m a tough worried about that over time

Felix Lu

6:08

@Jacob...how many portfolios do you have?

Ron Lim

6:08

@Andy K Dlol... do you follow me on Instagram?

Artless (Mike D)

6:08

Finding a place for a massive SSB piece would be a delightful problem to face...

Malvin

6:08

I was once running around ECCC to get commissions and handed an artist a board that already had somethign on the other side!

good thing I clued in early enough and replaced it with a blank one

Artless (Mike D)

@lambo You're right that not just following trends is important. Buying only what u love is less helpfull advice for collectors who's tastes fluctuate a lot, I guess.

Lambo

6:08

Not really. what i said was what they love. and what they love can fluctuate all the time. as long as it's something they like at the time of purchase, it still fits my very general advice.

JasonK

@felix 2.quick artist additions to the roster. Might we be seeing a larger expansion of Felix Comic Art?

Felix Lu

6:09

@JasonK...I don't think so. But we'll see.

Andy k

6:09

@ron lim yes and I saw the awesome color work you posted on CAF this is Yo Kuri

Ron Lim

6:09

@Felix, how were Tradd's SSB pages sold... how many broken up versus complete?

Felix Lu

6:10

3 sold complete, 2 broken up...then one complete came back to us, that we ended breaking up for SDFC 2020.

Ron Lim

6:10

@Andy ahhhh. That's you!

Jacob M

6:10

@Felix Um… in total, 5. Only a couple are OA tho. Most are prints. All sizes. One 24x36 and the rest 12x19 or whatever it is. One or two smaller

Felix Lu

6:10

@Jacob...you are on the edge of maybe considering getting a safe. Worth it when you have enough art.

Ron Lim

6:11

Thanks Felix. Just trying to figure how hard getting a page would be. IMPOSSINLE.

Felix Lu

6:12

@Ron...yeah. It's so high on so many people's lists right now. A lot of actually been resold. All the ones that haven't, won't be anytime soon, because those owners have already shown to not be moved by $$$.

Jason Wood

6:12

If anyone knows anything about this collector, including how to reach them...let me know!

Dan T

6:12

Wait...Over 5 portfolios means it's time for a safe? What kind of safe?

Ron Lim

6:12

(forgive my horrendous typing)

@Felix, any safes you recommend?

Felix Lu

6:12

@Ron...DM me...

Jacob M

6:12

@Felix I’d love something substantial. Problem is space. I’m Los Angeles squeezed on square footage. Maybe there’s an under the bed style flat safe out there.

Felix Lu

6:13

@Jacob...there are flat metal containers that offer some protection, too...

Artless (Mike D)

6:13

@felix I think this past couple weeks is the first time I've seen u putting out requests for collectors to advocate for a given artist to join your stable.

Felix Lu

6:13

@Artless...whatever it takes!

Rob Rusch

6:14

4x5 foot SSB on wall. hard to tell scale here
