[These are sold out right now, but I'm printing some more for the spring very soon. If you want to get on the waiting list just dm me (@owenbroadcast) or email me at monarchzeronyc @gmail.com][QUICK NOTE ON SHIPPING: Pretty simple but worth noting:A) Everything except these framed prints is made and shipped out for me when you order it. I make and ship these framed prints myself.B) So, the shipping calculator can tell you when everything will get to you except these framed prints.C) Therefore, if you want to see exactly what day your stuff will get to you (like if you're planning for a gift or something), but you want a framed print and one of the other items, it's best to just place two orders (one of the other stuff and one for the framed prints). It doesn't cost anything extra, if you place it as one order (which you can do, it's all the same to me) it just adds the shipping prices up but doesn't give you a date. Eventually I'll fix this but it's surprisingly complex.]This is the second printing of this image from the studio, I have twenty made up here already and I numbered the run out of 20 but if they move swiftly I'll make some more. This edition is the green to blue fade you see here. It matches the current run of the rosary prints I have going on right now you can see here. Obviously as an artist I "think through" the visual situation completely so, I've been calling this the "garden" color scheme, it has the greens and blues of "deep nature" and then on the frame, the cool grey is kind of like stone, and the warm grey showing through that is like wood (well, it literally is wood). I think it was inspired by being in the woods a lot at this lake near the studio.Obviously, if you are familiar with me and "the vibe" you know I'm very into mysticism, theology, church history, and things like that. All that and more intersects at the study of angels, sometimes called "angelology" which is the title for this print.In case you're unfamiliar with his work, there's a guy named Psudeo-Dionysius the Areopagite who wrote a book called "On The Celestial Hierarchy" that is an early work about the ranks of angels and the celestial hierarchy in general. I am not a theologian, but I would say it's been very influential on and foundational for Christianity in general, so I based this print on his writings. Essentially all writing about angels I have found from after him references his work in some way - that's been my personal experience at least.Notes:I am not a theologian, I'd rather people not think of this as "the 100% official definitive authoritative guide", it's more like you rolled into a village in medieval times and there's an artist there who made one of these. This print is different than the others, I'm printing this from home with this super nice printer I got, so they're not commercially printed like the other prints. I'm able to print with super high quality ink (it almost looks like paint on top of the paper) onto thick watercolor paper, so at the risk of sounding pretentious, it's more of a 'fine art' style print. All the ink and paper is archival (i.e. acid free) so it won't yellow over time and is as "won't eventually fade" as physically possible. I sign and number the back of the paper itself, and I'm only going to make a certain amount.That's it! I've been working on this for a while so I'm excited to put it out there. I assure you they look very fresh.It's $65 plus 8 for shipping, I have to buy the frames and all the shipping supplies and the paper and ink is super expensive so, that's the story. If you're outside the US it's a little more. They make me ship these as first class packages (to be fair, they are first class materials).The print is 8.5 x 11 and with the frame it's about 10 x 12.5 (inches). The frames are actually wood and have sort of a "naked wood" feel (i.e. you can feel that they're wood when you touch them). It was actually really difficult to find a good quality frame supplier so, ultimately I'm very pleased with how this turned out. Show more
