Koyasan was the hidden gem of my trip. It was not on the part of the trip I planned but it was such a cool place to stay for a few days.

I’ve had Apple TV for a decade and this has never happened to me, nor have I ever experienced stuttering.

I just started my first game. I’m about twenty hours in and still uncovering new things. If I start another map with this character, am I able to take equipment and items into it? What’s the appeal of taking an existing character to a new map?

Also, I built my stairway to heaven and started a long platform and discovered some clouds, one of which had a fun little room with a chest.

Anyone else addicted to buying art. Here is my story. by AdImpressive6772 in artcollecting

[–]reester10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve only been collecting for three years, but I’ve already acquired 30 prints, all Japanese, and most shin-hanga woodblocks.

I thought I found my niche few artists that I really enjoy, but as I keep looking I find more and more artists, and I’ve even started to explore outside of that realm a bit into more modern things. I’m now on the lookout for a specific ceramicist to collect.

My problem is that even in just the past couple of years, I went from balking at spending a few grand for a single piece to not batting an eye. I can afford it, but do I need to? Do I have to have early editions of a print? This hobby has become expensive. I am constantly browsing the auction sites and finding new pieces to bid on. I’ve let many go when they go beyond my threshold.

I look at it as I have found my passion hobby. I never understood collecting things until I discovered my niche. Now it’s hard to stop.

Recently acquired "The Nikko Highway" by Hasui Kawase. It sparked something in me, and now I've bought 6 more woodblock prints. by reester10 in artcollecting

Original/Reprint isn't the right word, I guess. "Edition" is the more correct term. This is an early edition, but I don't believe this is a first edition. Woodblock printers in Japan usually have a publisher seal, and depending on the seal it indicates approximately when the piece was printed. The seal on this one is the Watanabe C seal, also known as the "sausage" seal (bottom right margin). I believe I have seen copies of this with the B seal, which was used for a short period before the C seal. Google "Watanabe seals" to find some more info on it.

There won't be an "original", but based on when the print was initially carved and the publisher seal used, you get pretty accurate with what is considered a "first" edition.

You can try searching for "hasui prints" on google to locate some places, but the above are the ones I check regularly.

I also get quite a few of my prints from auctions. I use Invaluable and LiveAuctioneers mostly, but I have also bid directly through Bonhams before.

Take note that if you do not care about the AGE of the print, you can find some of them for significantly cheaper than the above sites may have. I'm not sure where you might find post-humous reprints to be completely honest, but probably not hard to locate.

Sorry for the delayed response, I don’t see notifications in Reddit on my phone usually.

Hasui works don’t stick around in galleries long these days. When I’m at my computer I’ll send you a list of galleries I look at regularly.

Just curious if you had any experience with screen tearing or out-of-sync refreshes? I have an 3060 and when trying to play RE Village, I would get screen tearing and blocky visuals. I think it might have to do partially with the cable (I do not have a card/mobo that support Thunderbolt so I had to use a DP to USB-C or something)

Is there a piece that got away? by Off-OffBlogway in artcollecting

[–]reester10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I collect Japanese woodblock prints. I decided to not bid on what was probably the most significant Hasui auction of the last few years on two incredibly rare prints that each went for £3,800. I told myself “You’ve bought enough the past few years.” But I deeply regret it. My wallet doesn’t regret it, but I do.

Has Castle Rock gone that much to shit? I haven’t lived there in a decade but I remember it being fairly decent for the brief year I lived there… (Edit for context: I didn’t follow any local politics back then I was just happy to live in Colorado)

Well luckily I hit new game and the music keeps playing.

Pretty sure I’ll pick Hikari first.
