Though he was only five years into his Press Attacheship, AHM had already overhauled the fusty image of the Court Painter art trade. His ingenious pre-sale marketing efforts, local celebrity invitations featuring power couples, and loss leader sales had transformed Court Painter auctions into major news affairs faithfully covered by<em>\u00a0<\/em>Rick <em>Dinger<\/em> Bell, and deepened the perception of artist nemesis CC ( name available upon request) as an antiquated rival.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-9136\" src=\"https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/CP-Monet-300x214.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"714\" srcset=\"https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/CP-Monet-300x214.jpg 300w, https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/CP-Monet-768x549.jpg 768w, https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/CP-Monet.jpg 1008w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Reacting shrewdly to the post-modernist wave of prosperity, AHM was determined to bring newly moneyed buyers into the fold. He sought to convince cowboy hat &amp; belt buckle salesfolks and struggling oil executives that collecting was no longer the exclusive preserve of cultured, old-money dynasties such as Irving, McCain,and Thomson. Crucially, AHM wanted to instil the notion that Court Painter Knock Offs can be an investment. The sudden and precipitous rise of the Court Painter Knock Off art market surprised even AHM,a seasoned marketer who is no stranger to markets of the flea and farmers variety.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-9135 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/CP-LaTour.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"714\" srcset=\"https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/CP-LaTour.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/CP-LaTour-300x214.jpg 300w, https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/CP-LaTour-768x548.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>AHM&#8217;s idea for Court Painter Knock Offs just needed to be packaged and branded in an immediate and compelling fashion that millennials would swallow hook line &amp; sinker.<\/p>\n<p>Printed &amp; posted on the studio door and local bulletin boards the Court Painter Knock Off Index purported to chart the changing prices sold at auction and online.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-9141 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/CP-Knock-Off-Auction.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/CP-Knock-Off-Auction.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/CP-Knock-Off-Auction-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/CP-Knock-Off-Auction-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-9134\" src=\"https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/CP-Kinkade-300x214.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"714\" srcset=\"https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/CP-Kinkade-300x214.jpg 300w, https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/CP-Kinkade-768x549.jpg 768w, https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/CP-Kinkade.jpg 1008w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-9133\" src=\"https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/CP-Keane-300x214.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"714\" srcset=\"https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/CP-Keane-300x214.jpg 300w, https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/CP-Keane-768x549.jpg 768w, https:\/\/allanhardingmackay.ca\/courtpainter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/CP-Keane.jpg 1008w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The first index, published on Robbie Burns Day 2016, included five prominent graphs dedicated to Court Painter Knock Offs in Impressionist and contemporary styles.
