New phlegm print coming soon, by alittle on Mar 29, 2013 20:12:50 GMT 1, The only thing I wish is that he didn't incorporate the stamp in to the image. It would have looked much better to leave the original drawing in tact and have the stamp in the corner, overlaying part of the image, if necessary (like Battle).

New phlegm print coming soon, by letiss on Mar 29, 2013 20:13:21 GMT 1, The stamp seems a bit too prominent for my liking and the image just isn't as strong as civilisation, which is an excellent print. I'm more excited about the book. Nevertheless of course this is a nice print at a good price.

New phlegm print coming soon, by chaturz on Mar 29, 2013 21:43:40 GMT 1, im always impressed with his street work especially the large pieces with the detail that must go into it. However the prints tend to be hit and miss for me, though as I said I like this one because of the sitting under a pile of books which is sometimes how I feel when work mounts up

New phlegm print coming soon, by Daniel Silk on Mar 29, 2013 22:47:47 GMT 1, I think he's just another one of those artists whos style goes well on the streets, but really doesnt translate into good prints or the sort of images that many people want on their walls at home.

Ironically I first came across Phlegms work in comics and prints ever before I saw a wall. I find it incredible that he can come up with such imaginatively, intricate drawings on paper and equally maintain that level of detail and beauty on walls.
A very skilled practitioner of both mediums.

New phlegm print coming soon, by supercockle on Mar 30, 2013 0:55:58 GMT 1, I think the detail in his work translates quite nicely to print. I'd love this piece to hang in my library (parrot's bedroom with a couple of bookcases) though I suspect work will get in the way of my F5 finger. Really love the original Dan.

Hi Dan, you've got one hell of a original sketch collection and that phlegm is a beauty. However I kind of see silkys point of view with regards to prints. When civilisation is taken out of the equation I can't think of any prints of his I like. And maybe its because i don't know his stuff well enough but his sketches and street works are amazing but the prints 9 times out of 10 seem to be a miss for me. but of course as always it may just come down to personal preference with these things. In any case the new one in question I feel is one of phlegms better prints IMHO

New phlegm print coming soon, by alittle on Mar 30, 2013 12:08:48 GMT 1, Different strokes for different folks. I prefer Civilisation, Stilt, Battle, and Point and Measure to this one. This is the result of a few factors:
(1) The aforementioned stamp placement. Don't like that it has been incorporated in to the image, and looks especially strange from a distance due to the white spot. (2) It is a great image, but I think it works better as a book cover, than as a standalone print. Most of the interest is on the right half of the image, and again, the stamp placement. (3) From a technical standpoint, it seems to be less complex than the other prints. Looks like white paper and one black screen and that's it.
All that being said, I am still going to go for it, but it won't be one I'll be throwing stupid money at in the secondary market if I miss out.
And Daniel, I do like to hang his work on my walls, and I would consider these to be my favourite pieces in my collection:

New phlegm print coming soon, by Weegis on Mar 31, 2013 22:04:22 GMT 1, Would really love one of these - having lost out trying for civ and not managing to bag within the ten seconds or so of availability, I'm doubtful of any luck at a 4AM-ish drop US time. Good price as well. I don't know which is more frustrating - trying and losing out on a drop, or the immediate ridiculous secondary market value

New phlegm print coming soon, by freakinstyle on Apr 1, 2013 10:24:11 GMT 1, I am a fan of his work and I think it isn't that much of if his works would work well on a wall. I think it might more be something like, his street work works more powerful or it is a more unusual kind of work for a street artist for having in your home. Might be we would like his work for indoors a lot more if he would have done only those. I do think some prints are better than others and have seen some great examples of prints that work well!
But I wouldn't mind if opportunistic wankers try to buy them as investment, just because of the name and having them to sell for less later. Good, let them loose money! Would be a lot more annoying if they would buy them and sell them for more to people that would actually appreciate them!

New phlegm print coming soon, by Dibbs 45 on Apr 1, 2013 14:40:43 GMT 1, Love to own one of these. Love his work. But like so many drops nowadays you get ever more despondent when you don't get one. This will sell out in seconds as usual, as with all quality stuff and the sad truth is, that people will have to save up their hard earned cash to pay through the nose to someone who doesn't give a shit about his work through ebay. Oh and then they will have to get a bollocking from their other halfs for spending too much money on street art. What can you do eh?
