Through our business dealings with the Terpnings, we are very fortunate to have been given an opportunity to offer some of the artist proofs that the family has maintained in their collection at very special prices.

An artist's proof (A.P. or AP) in modern printing practice is a reproduction of a work of art that is printed before the limited edition copies. It is usually identical to the limited edition, but are not counted in the edition size. The number made is far less than the limited edition. They belong to the artist, who may sell them or give them away, or simply keep them in their personal collection.

Artist's proofs were once slightly better in appearance than the limited edition, because the printing quality was slightly higher for the first few printed. With modern reproduction technologies, the quality remains constant, however some collectors still prefer AP's because of their rarity, and direct connection to the artist.

We have the artist proofs of some fantastic sold-out pieces available. You can view a list of the pieces available here. Call us at 1800 255-6498 or 661 298-2038 if you would like a quote on any of these, or to reserve one of these treasures for your collection.
