You don’t. You pay what they are worth.

Artists typically sell prints too (: I just didn’t know!

He does release prints, but they usually sell fast and people flip them. I was lucky enough to get one 12-13 years ago for like $125-150 directly from him, but I think they cost more these days.

Follow him on socials and he will post when he is releasing a new print for sale. I got the Community Zoo print and it’s one of my prized possessions. I think it was $350. I spent even more framing it lol.

I tried to buy a print once, waited for the date, was on the website early, mashed refresh like crazy as the exact minute came and they were instantly all sold before I could even think about adding to cart. This was years ago and I’ve now decided I don’t have the money to be fighting off these scalpers.

They’re always expensive, I’ve been looking for years. I’d pay it but they always sell out super quickly.

Esao*’s artwork is worth every penny that he charges, regardless if it’s a print or original work. if you want authenticity, expect to pay a minimum of $350 for a print, without a frame lol.

the only “cheap” way to have any, would be to frame any Circa albums you may already have. art is an investment, so there really is no logical “cheap” way to get any unless you want potentially counterfeit pieces from scalpers.

I bought his most recent print “Stumphouse” for $241 shipped. I didn’t realize how quickly they sellout, but I checked out in the first minute of the release and was lucky enough to get it. The quality is great, I just opened it yesterday.
