Hands up if you'd be interested in an Andrew Ellis calendar

[Cassini]

I'm looking into the possibility of producing a calendar with andy's work on for next year- if we go ahead if would be ready to buy at the falconry festival in July..... so who would be interested? There will only be a limited number produced.

Give me your thoughts

[Yarak_Eric]

Would buy at least one if shipping to America is possible and I can be guaranteed one. Hands Up! :supz:

[Cassini]

hi everyone, thanks for your positive responses

yes we will be able to ship them worldwide.

At the moment I'm just trying to work out costings and we'll have to obviously choose some good images, so it's early stages, but it's good to hear they would be well recieved. Obviously will keep you updated.

Absolutely one of the best ideas i heard for a while, I would want one for 100% sure!!!

[FalconGriff]

Hello Mrs C we haven't met why doesn't he bring you down? Put me down for a couple.

[Sarah J]

Sounds a great idea...would it be of the existing classics or a combination of his latest work??

I will defo have one tho; beats looking at the **** ones you get at Christmas every year 8-)

[Linton0709]

Strange thought I had already asked for one! but hey I would love one please!

[Cassini]

Hi Griff we have met, but it was many many years ago, probably 10 years or more we came down and had a meal with you one evening- andy says it was italian - my memory's not that good! :)

as suggested in the lyrics of a snoop dog track... my hands are thrown up in the air and i'm waving the mother farkers like i just don't care!

a chance to get 12 prints will be awesome, will it be affordable tho? i'd amagine i'd not be alone in wanting a larger print as possible, so 1 can cut em out and keep them after 12months,
would you not be taking a big hit on the prints; 12 prints for say £20??

fair comment, and we realise some people will buy them to cut up and frame, which is fine and up to them. But at the end of the day however nice the calendar is you have to be realistic that that is all it is.The prints will be nothing like the quality of our giclees for instance. Obviously you get what you pay for in terms of quality and what the print is worth- a print taken out of a book or calendar and framed may look ok on your wall but will never have a monetary value as such.
With the cheaper prints and other products such as the cards and calendars we just want to give people the chance to get " a bit of andrew ellis" at an affordable price, we realise that the originals are out of a lot of people's reach as are some of the more expensive prints.
ok gone on enough now LOL

not yet , i've got a vague idea in my head but still trying to work things out,

I'm thinking that once i have a cost and some images picked to share with you, so you have an idea what you'll be getting, we may allow people to pre order and secure their calendar with a deposit.....
good idea???

thanks for the reply, its not monetary value i'm after, would be awesome to get some quality ellis works on the wall, am sure they will look awesome, and with my budget (like a lot else) its probably a good way\ the only way of getting say 12 nice images on 1's wall.... cos i'm not rich! but doesn't mean i apprecieate them any less then some1 who can afford them...
i'm in there like swim wear/keen as a bean just hope you make the callendar as big as pos for a reasnable price... will def buy 1. :supz:

the plan is to make the calendar A3 size- which is the biggest the printer does, so the image would be roughly A4 size, and yes the plan is to keep the price reasonable, whilst making us some money at same time of course LOL :)

[Morganna]

yes please we would jump at one:yawinkle:

[Dave Johnson]

I would definatly have one.Dave:supz:

[Cassini]

Really appreciate all your positive feedback.
I'll be looking at possible layouts and more costings today, then as soon as possible i'll drag andy away from the easel and get him to help me sort out images :)

[Wilfred]

I'll pass on your kind words of encouragement :)

[VerticalStoop]

Put me down for at least one.

Either way, would love to have one on the wall.

This calendar will be a falconry based one, but hopefully if it goes well then maybe the following year we may do a mixed one?

Pricing at the moment is looking at £15 and if you pick it up at the festival there would be no postage to pay.
We're going to start choosing images next week or week after.
will keep you informed when there's more news.

[FalconGriff]

As they are going to sell out will you be reserving what we have asked for on the forum (please) for those of us that have to work and can't make the fair!!

[Cassini]

i have made a list of everyone who has expressed an interest on here, and through the website/ facebook page.
The plan is once we have some images chosen and the price is confirmed ( it's pretty definite as £15), i will contact all of you, telling you how you can reserve your copies with a small deposit.Then I'll post the same details on here plus the website etc
If you can make it to the festival you can then pay the balance when you collect , or if not you can pay the balance plus the relevant postage ( which we'll keep as reasonable as poss)and I'll post them to you.

[Natch]

yes please:cool:

[HalkyWalky]

me as well please, also please make sure ,if possible ,there is enough room on the calender to scribble a note on each day otherwise i never can remember what i am supposed to be doing each day :oops: i have often in the past bought a calender because i liked the pictures but its been useless to actually use.

[Redhead]

I Would love one cheers redhead.

[Wilfred]

Maybe for the hunting season months you can add some space to write down some details from hunting season :-)
