Bev Doolittle Makes First Appearance On YouTube

The `Best-Selling Artist in Print' Talks About Her New Painting After Eight-Year Absence From Limited Edition Print Publishing


SEYMOUR, Conn., April 9, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- World-renowned famed artist Bev Doolittle(r) stars in another medium with her first-ever appearance on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IU36-kCNelQ). Discussing her work as an artist, Doolittle is shown finalizing her most recent canvas - her first after an eight-year absence from limited edition print publishing - Beyond Negotiations, a painting of charging Blackfoot Indians coming straight at the viewer and even crashing through the long horizontal border.

Widely considered to be one of the best-selling artists in print, the strength of Doolittle's appeal is her ability to connect to a wide swath of fine art collectors. Sacred Ground, Doolittle's stunningly successful limited edition print, moved the fine art limited reproductions market by $25-30 million in 1989, the year it was published, and established a new industry-high watermark. The secondary market for her work is strong as well -- her now iconic limited edition print Pintos, which The Greenwich Workshop sold for $65 in 1979, today sells for $12,000-15,000.

The Greenwich Workshop, Inc. is the exclusive publisher of Doolittle. Beyond Negotiations is the artist's first limited edition release as a fine art canvas (fine art giclee) and her first new full color limited edition release since The Earth is My Mother in 1999, published as part of a unique limited edition book and print combination.
