Wait, when I met up with you that one day you said I looked fine. Now you're saying "fine" means "plain". I'm offended. Jk.

I agree with everything you said in the last post.

I think that prints that Shepard actually hand pulled could be considered his fine art.
The screen was the medium.

In case anyone questions whether Shepard thinks a print can be "fine art."

So...if Shep thinks enough of a print to consider it fine art, it will come with a COA...otherwise, it's just a print.

Got it. Excellent point.

Thanks for clearing that up for us. :D

Which seems to mean that "fine art" prints = large format prints.

Not necessarily. The Smokey Robinson prints came with the same COA....

Large Format prints used to be called Fine Art prints on O.G. So what does that mean?

Late to this thread (and the original that spawned the poll). My vote "for" fine art just made it a 50/50. Big deal :)
Anyway, I'll put my thoughts on the subject in the original thread...when I finish it.
