I'm looking for a few pieces of original art. Does anyone know who owns any of these:

Blacker Lotus (Christopher Rush)
Lotus Bloom (Christopher Rush)
Lotus Vale (John Avon)
Lotus Petal (April Lee)

If you have any info you can share, feel free to shoot me an email at AbsolutAlphas@gmail.com.

Thanks,
Jake

I know who owns the Black Lotus redux painting that was given out as the first place prize for the Vintage Championship at GenCon many years back. Email me.

Email the artists.
They're all very friendly and keep records of this sorta thing if they've been sold.

Really? That seems really, really odd.

Actually doesn't surprise me. Many of the artists don't even bother to track that, especially if they were sold at conventions.

AFAIK the artist should give the person who purchased the Goblin Mason an AP. I am not sure if they got it from a third party or not.

Shuler gave me 2 APs with my art.

Should, but it isn't required. The artist might have sold off all the proofs cheap and sat on the original for a long while, who knows. I'm sure if you gave a brief mention to the painting and how it was obtained you should be able to easily acquire the proof if the artist still has any remaining.

I've contacted Tony and the gallery about APs. He will be making an appearance locally next month so I am going to try and set something up then.

Meanwhile, if anyone has a lead on a Spanish foil Goblin Masons I would be forever grateful. :-)

Thread Hijack...

Out of curiosity, who else owns original art here, and what do you have?

I own the originals for Cruel Ultimatum and Uncontrolled Infestation.

My top 3 are Overgrown Tomb, Godless Shrine, and Tinker.

I don't plan on letting them go any time soon, but I'll let you know if that ever changes.

Fantastic pieces! One day I'll finish paying off my college loans and then I'll have more disposable income to throw into my collection. I've always wanted an original from Greg Staples.

I was looking at ebay and there was a bunch of random art on there and was thinking of maybe picking up a few of the smaller priced ones...

Any one have any advice on what to look for when buying the orginal art?
