We are so excited to announce that our brand new and unique art exhibit from Prince was a huge success! The response was amazing, boasting hundreds of guests who came together to make the opening party at the San Francisco Art Exchange in downtown San Francisco a wonderful time.

Prince has never released artwork like this before, so naturally the response has been incredible! Collectors as well as buyers from around the world have purchased one or more limited edition prints from this inspiring body of work to use in their personal collections or galleries of their own. One collector insisted on purchasing all 7 pieces for his collection!

Additionally, many LotusFlow3r members have purchased prints online at the San Francisco Art Exchange website www.sfae.com using their LotusFlow3r exclusive discount codes which we have e-mailed and distributed just a few days ago! LotusFlow3r members saved $150 or more off their fine art purchases!

Keep in mind, these are exclusive fine art prints with a limited production of only 99 per image. They are all signed by Prince's lead designer, Anthony Malzone alongside the iconic Prince Love Symbol which has been hand embossed into each print. Each piece measures 24" x 36" and is printed as a giclee digital print using high quality archival inks on acid free archival paper.

As mentioned, this is the first time Prince has released anything like this. The project falls perfectly in place with his unbound creative impulses to explore new media and participate with his fans.

Deliveries are being processed on a first come first serve basis. And, of course, if you have already purchased one or more of these images, congratulations!

Huge success. Hundreds of guests. Limited to 99 per image.

But they still have inventory? Define huge success.

They even linked Drfunkenberry's site on LF too for peeps to visit the taped gallery show.

Wonderful

Many fans complaining about the site's kick-off, the content and few updates, and the lack of being able to sent T-shirts, and then we receive this e-mail, with all experience so far, this succes story sounds ridiculous to me. Correctly mentioned by Squirrelgrease, define succes:
"One collector insisted on purchasing all 7 pieces for his collection! "

Oh wow, really, 1 and would that be Prince?
and he insisted, I never went to buy something and insisted to buy it, I just did, what a big fuzz over nothing.

Well nothing, a $1.000 print is a huge succes when compared to a few $7 founding memmber t-shirts.

I have to correct myself; great e-mail, wow, finally the site is doing great

Wonder if this 'mystery collector' has pre-ordered the ridiculous opus too.....

they actually are very smart when you see em framed and all-but to me-essentially-they're framed posters-done by a virtually unknown guy-who wants to charge picasso prices

any decent framing and graphics store could easily give you something as good-mabey not signed-but as that sig is wothless really-who cares. All you'd need to do is take the image in-and there are a wealth of perfect copies online already

a serious waste of $1000-and buying seven.....

some folk are just.....either lucky to be able to throw cash away-or stupid. I still can't decide

Huge success = 3 duplicate emails telling us what a huge success it has been and still offering more stock. Pathetic.

It's laughable isn't it

I got the E-mail and haven't even joined Lotusflow3r
