Hullo Furry Freak brothers and sisters,

Just to inform those that haven't looked on my website: www.the-masque.com
recently, I am producing large format limited edition fine art prints of my
artwork. Many people have written to me over the years requesting good
quality prints, and I have finally found a medium...Giclie printing, that
really does the designs justice. The quality of the printing is superb;
rich, dark colours and subtle tones on heavyweight watercolour paper...they
look like original paintings rather than any print I've ever seen. They
really look fantastic and are available now.

I have several commissions for new paintings, one of which, for Marillion's
box set I'm just about to begin. The sale of the giclie fine art prints will
help me finance that as well as some new airbrush paintings for an
exhibition of album cover art I'm hoping to organise with other artists in
the near future. I have two 'big names' in the field of album cover art on
board already and we are in the process of approaching other artists right
now. These prints will be shown at the exhibition too, albeit more expensive
to buy, as the galleries will take their commission on top.

Please e'mail me for details or take a look at:

for details.

The following are a few rections from people who have already rec'd
these prints:

I can't believe they got here so quickly! They look
great! I took them out and looked for two minutes before I ran out the
door, so I didn't get to look at them too closely last night...........but I
really, really liked what I saw!

Prints arrived today, they are fantastic. You were right the Giclée
process makes for a far superior finish to similar album cover work I
have seen available from other artists, the personal touch really pays
off. I will be skipping work early today to go and get them framed.
I took the Prints to the framing shop yesterday (I get them back on the
20th) and although nobody had ever heard of Marillion or seen the albums
the prints gathered quite a crowd and many admiring comments. After
seeing them laid out on the counter I was really annoyed that I did not
buy Fugazi.

Got the print on Wed I believe, and I must say it looks great.
I, among others, have always been looking for good versions of your
work. With the Giclee prints, you've surpassed my expectations. I was
impressed with how well they were packed also, a lot of care went into
these the whole way round. I'm in the process of getting Sugar Mice
framed. I'd be glad to send a picture for the website if you'd like.
Please feel free to send anyone my way who has questions.

another print from you . . . )
