Hi Jenni,
Thanks for the info. Do you know any history of your father's painting of Locomotive 88?
Thanks so much,
Tim
: I am the daughter of Robert Bidner (deceased).
: The prints you are referring to were
: "chromographs" produced by Greg
: Copeland Inc. in the early 1980s. They are
: not original paintings, but photographic
: reproductions of his paintings that were
: overlaid on a canvas-like material for a
: painting "look".
:
: Unfortunately, the Copeland process was NOT
: colorfast and most (if not all) of my
: father's chromoliths are very faded. They
: only retain the sepia/brown color rather
: than full color spectrum.
:
: There were also some very high quality
: lithographs of cars and architecture made by
: my father (not Copeland) in the same time
: period. These were archivally produced and
: still look great today.
:
: Don't know the value of the Copeland
: chromographs now, but they occasionally show
: up on Ebay.
:
: Hope that helps.

: In my case I think Greg Copeland was just
: the
: company that did the framing. I wasn't able
: to find much about him either. I am also
: trying to find out if the paintings by the
: artist (Robert Bidner in my case) have any
: value. Let me know if y9ou find anything.
: Thanks

: I have two numbered prints of pottery done
: by
: Greg Copland that I purchased in 1984 but
: can't find out anything about him on today's
: sites. I'd like to sell them. Do you know
: if Copeland's work has any value?

: I have a couple of these and discovered that
: Greg Copeland is not the artist. Mine are
: signed "Bidner" in the lower right
: corner. How would you describe the car? If
: the license plate is visible, what does it
: say?

: I have a large print of an automobile. It's
: marked Greg Copeland, original print
: chromograph on the back. I'd like to know
: more about this piece and the artist. Does
: anyone know of him?
:
:
:
: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:I
: have a really cool paper sculpture, framed
: with the Greg Copeland signature in pencil
: at the bottom. I really don't think that
: signagure was from the framer, although it
: is a three-dimensional piece.--Not the corny
: 80s, foofoo kind of paper sculpture, but a
: sophistocated geometric that measures
: 14" tall by 4 1/4" wide, and the
: silver metal frame is 2" deep. It is
: very cleverly and well executed. So theres
: my story about Greg Copeland. Hope it helps
: and hope it helps me too. Regards to all,
: Racena
:
:
:
:
: Racena, your geometric design sounds exactly
: like mine including the deep silver frame.
: Mine is numbered so there were more than one
: made. WE just might have twins. I too am
: trying to find out about Greg Copeland
