If anyone is interested in the Shag 12 serigraph collection from the "Twelve Stations of Ptolomy" show at La Luz de Jesus in LA, it will cost $1450. I suppose that is a bargan at $120.83 per print.
Oh and according to the website, each of the paintings went for $6,000 each.

With 12 stations, each corresponding to a Zodiac sign, my guess is that these drawings will end up in a future Shag calendar.
One calendar takes up much less wall space (and is cheaper)than 12 serigraphs.
On the other hand, it might be nice to own all 12 serigraphs - then I could rotate them around, based on the Zodiac sign of whatever woman I was dating.

There are going to be 200 sets of 12 available. I'd like to go in with other TC'ers for a set if there's a local willing to pool our funds. I'm after the Scorpio print.
Sign me Determined and Forceful,
(Hah! I'm more like ensnared and obsessed)

Cultjam,
That sounds like a good idea. If this is successful, I'd be interested in Virgo or Gemini.

Thats a good idea, but I can't afford it now. Here's a peek of the art: http://www.laluzdejesus.com/

Cultjam, if you are serious I would like Pisces. I would pay extra for the trouble you take in distributing the serigraph.

Not for $250 serigraphs, but for the shared/split price of the prints ($120.83 plus costs), I'll take the Leo one, Cultjam. (Gift for a multi-cat owning Leo friend. That picture is HER to a T!)
Thanks! I hope we find takers for all 12.
AND
Can we find a local who also wants one of the 12 and can get them for us? PLEEZ?

If we can pool our resources, I would be up for two of the prints: Cancer and Gemini.

I'm wondering if it might cost the same to ship the folio rather than pay the sales tax. I'll call tomorrow and ask if the gallery will ship.

Per the De La Luz website, the Folio is sold out. 
That truly is amazing. We'll see how many scalpers there were amoung the buyers.

I think the originals are sold out, not the folios. It seems you can only get them by going to the gallery.
