The print will make excellent companion for the original art.

The print is numbered 'Thanks' out of 50. If we can call it that. Makes it all the more unique.

Will get this framed when I find the time.

I suggest you get a print of this guys, it has been colored brilliantly...IMHO one of the best Turner prints yet.

Didn't know "Thanks" was a number lol. Congrats. The print looks great

Hmm...I typically like his stuff, but I don't like that one. There is almost too much color going on.

Hello all! Please help out your fellow Aspen prints collector.

Is there anyone of you who can confirm owning the following Aspen print on the right side?



Aspen and all other re-sellers use the right side picture to promote their print. I have already two (left side) versions. One bought directly from Aspen. As you can see, the promo picture from Aspen is totally different from the print I got from them.

I contacted Aspen and their rep told me that there is only 1 version of this print and difference may just be the angle of the right side photo I'm looking at, or the quality of the photo that makes it seem different.

When I asked how can angle or quality add the stem to the pumpkin they stopped answering.

Here is a picture of the one that I own. It has the stem, a lot of the times the pictures that they use for advertisement are straight from the computer and sometimes end up being revised. If you ask me the one on the left is better. There are many companies out there that advertise a certain picture that looks different from the final product. Is there a concern for authenticity? Or what is the underlying issue?

Great piece, but I am leaning towards a 1/4 scale collection.

Rottencat,

My apologies for the confusion. The print on the left (with the pumpkin stem and smoke effects) is the final finished version that we produced and sell.

The image on the right is essentially Peter's first coloring pass that was 'close' to being done, but then he finished it out by adding in the stem and smoke effects. He always emails the images out to everyone for feedback and such, so Brooke must have just used this wrong incomplete image in our auction listing. That particular version of this print was never made so it only exists as the jpg image you posted.

hope this helps out!
