Sketch of Sumwon in Saratoga Special
 

Our big girl's celebrity status continues as a sketch of her called "On the Rail" showed up in the Saratoga Special today.

I wish I could find a link of Bill Robert's gallery for all to see. It sure is neat seeing Sumwon and the Dee-Tee colors captured by the hand of an artist!

Thanks Steve!

Do you know if she is scheduled to gallop tomorrow morning? I'm stalking Rags tomorrow morning.

How awesome!

Next question - how do we get a copy! :)

Edit: you know what it is? The DeeTee silks are beautiful and eye-catching - EVERYwonlovesthem!

awesome!! two references to our stable in the same day!

well, i read about them both on the same day....

i cropped and am using as avatar, hope that's ok?

Riot: I have a couple of extra copies. You're welcome to one. Just send me the details.

Bob, can you save me one copy, too? I'll be there the week-end of the Travers.

I ran into one of the guys at Saratoga Special on Sunday morning and he said he would have the artist contact me or Steve at the BBQ to see about the possibility of getting poster prints for anyone who may want one.

Thanks, Nicole.

very cool! Sumwon gets to be any bigger star, she might replace some of my Alabama Football pictures. :eek:

I'd be interested - thanks, Sightseek!

Count me in on a print as well.I'm already replacing much of my NASCAR stuff with NTRA memories.

i would love a poster.

Hopefully the artist contacts Steve or I!!!

I'm on board with it, would look great in my office!

I would also like one. It would be a nice keepsake from my first partner venture.

remodeling the downstairs, would be a nice piece to begin with. think i could get it in a 7'x7'? :D

I've emailed the guy and left my number with Saratoga Special and still no reply......

Do they work for Keeneland, too?

Let us know if you hear anything - thanks!

I think they might.


maybe if we all flood them with emails they will either think we are the craziest people on earth or answer them. The sqeaky wheel does get the oil!

Did anyone try to e-mail him at work?

(He's a professor of arts at Wells College)

Cross your fingers
 

I got Mr. Roberts direct email & just sent off a correspondence.Let's hope he replies

Good News
 

Mr. Roberts replied.Here is his reply.

:) Thank you for your interest in my sketches including " On The Rail". I can have giclée prints of the
watercolor sketch produced however I will have to get back to you regarding the particulars as far as cost is concerned. Would you want these matted or framed? I'll include price list without matting and with matting and or matting and framing. Framing would take time and would protract the process; this would also add to the cost of shipping. I am very pleased that your partnership is supportive of this idea. Many thanks . Bill Roberts:)

Please reply & we can put this together for those really interested.

Count me as one. Would prefer matted but unframed.

add me in. just the print, i have a place here that does all my matting and framing.

I'm in for at least a print depending on prices.

we're in for the print, by itself.

I would definately want one.

Paul

i'm in for matted

The print, maybe matted, depending price.

I'm in for at least a print, maybe more depending upon the size and the price

Ditto

Count me in
 

I'd love a print and depending on matting and framing will maybe take the whole thing.

I'm glad you were able to finally get a hold of him and thank you for doing so!

Count me in for at least the print.

I would have to know more about it before I decide
but I am interested

very interested

Mr. Roberts contacted me today about the On the Rail prints.He said that now the Spa is over & school has settled in he had time to give our project some attention.For the sake of cost & time there will only be prints & his price will be based upon the volume requested.Any newcomers to the current past replies listed or does anyone want to retract there replied confirmation to possibly order based upon pricing.I will tally up the count Monday A.M. & then move forward to get a final per print cost.:cool:

Did he have any sort of estimate? I'm in as long as it doesn't get too crazy, like over $50.
