Ctein Dye Transfer Update

This morning, Ctein sent us the following update about the dye transfer prints:

I shipped off the last of the domestic Christmas orders for dye transfer prints on Thursday, December 4. Out-of-country Christmas orders were all shipped last week. This is approximately 1/3 of all the orders that came in. If you didn't explicitly agree to have your order delayed until after Christmas, your order has been shipped, unless I made a clerical error. Just in case of that, if you haven't gotten your order by Saturday, December 13th, please e-mail me then to confirm that it was sent.

Please do not e-mail me before  December 13th to inquire if your order was shipped. I can't take the time to respond to such inquiries without delaying other peoples' prints; I'm spending 50 hours a week on this as it is.

From this point on, I'm filling orders in the order that they were received. Many of the people who generously volunteered to have their orders deferred will still get their prints before Christmas (although I fear it's unlikely that many more out-of-country orders will be delivered by then, customs delays being what they are).

Thanks to everyone for their patience; now it's back to the salt mines! —Ctein

Thank you, Ctein!

Received my two dye transfer prints two weeks ago. They will make fabulous christmas gifts for an artist friend who also has worked a lot with the subject of plants, though in another medium. I wonder what his reaction will be.
I can imagine what a tiring print marathon you must be in.
Wishing you a lot of stamina!

Thank you sir for the beautiful prints! Mine arrived early this week in Toronto - no customs issues at all - not even a brokerage fee.

My apologies for not pushing my prints off until after x-mas. I was planing on giving one as a gift but after seeing them there is just no way. They'll get these when I'm dead.

Very pleased.

Thank you,

Tom

Mine arrived here in Ireland. To someone who has never seen dye transfer prints and who has only printed pigment inkjet himself, I am now spoiled for life. No way I can get those deep, glowing greens ;-(. Beautiful work, Ctein, and thank you for keeping to your promises despite the unexpected workload. Best regards, Mike.
