This guy's Banksy Collection, by lee3 on Nov 24, 2016 22:58:26 GMT 1, >>>Now I know why you know so much about this subject.<<< Because scorpio's can be overly passionate about what they love? I'm a bit of a savant with this artist because the work hit me (and continues to do so) where it counts and I've studied it feverishly over the years to a degree that most would describe as mental. Like phish, i think i've seen them 150/200 times over the past 25 years but not a spinner and pretty tame all things considered for that fanbase. And I agree with you ie that punk is like fine wine, that one gets even better as it ages. Thanks again all Punk was my favourite piece at the Bristol Museum show.

And I agree with you ie that punk is like fine wine, that one gets even better as it ages. Thanks again all Punk was my favourite piece at the Bristol Museum show. Thanks, to this day I can't name a better visual art experience than that show. I'm biased to no end but that show was so powerful and an absolute blast meeting a lot of you. I vividly remember standing in front of that painting, walking away and revisiting it and taking it in for longer and longer spells. Whenever I get to share that with someone, I try to point out that it amazes me that the figures are largely stencil based but the entire wall paper behind them is all hand painted sans stencil. Logically, I've never understood why a stencil artist takes the time to hand paint the wallpaper behind the subjects and this isn't an isolated case either; he simply loves his wallpaper. A curiosity I'd love to ask over a pint, but highly unlikely at this point. It is one of the better ones from that show for my eyes up there with gleaners/smoke break and a few of the other older crude oils from previous shows that were on loan (alien invasion and insecurity fence or whatever that one is properly called). |

This guy's Banksy Collection, by jettad on Nov 24, 2016 23:04:03 GMT 1, It was just fantastic to see such amazing pieces on the walls of a home being loved. I always imagine that a lot of these are locked away in storage by investors, never seeing the light of day.
Fantastic collection lee3.

Totally agree. I managed to see them earlier, and wanted to congratulate the owner for having them on the wall. Fantastic collection lee3. |

Indeed.
Sure beats the hell out of those "never seen the light of day, stored flat in original POW acid free paper, in pet and smoke free house" prints that their poor devastated sellers are distraught to have to sell.

Congrats on the great collection, a lot of people with such a collection are not capable of being as sincere and humble. Would love to run into you at a show but I imagine it will be tough as we have surpassed our traveling days. If you for some odd reason doing nye shoot me a message!

This guy's Banksy Collection, by Viking Surfer on Nov 25, 2016 0:25:35 GMT 1, Incredible lee3, thank you for taking the time (inadvertently) to share your collection and the stories as to why the works initially resonated with you.
I wouldn't have seen them on instagram without the link as that is more my wife's domain so I'm glad I got to see them today.
Thanks again and I have to say, the Punk OG has to be my favorite Banksy OG I've seen in a long time.
Cheers

i traveled to vegas this year with ~15 good buddies as a bunch of us are entering new phases in life (one of whom is becoming a first time father to twins at 43!). Also saw them a couple times over the summer so 6 shows this year i guess. They're in top form as far as i'm concerned and i'm inspired by the fact that trey could clean himself up from the certain death path he was headed down 10 years ago. I don't agree with the dad rock criticism as i see a guy who had the strength to quit before it killed him and embrace life as it's just too short. I had as good of time seeing them a few weeks ago as i ever have and would love to be doing nyc (with a certain member from brooklyn who will be taking in his first show) but just relocated to hawaii a few weeks ago after nearly 20 years in san fran. So, i hope to be diving or surfing instead and adjusting to a slower pace of life but have fun. hopefully we'll share a pint at a future show.

Twins at 43!? Holy crap! I heard Vegas was great. Was very close to making the trip, but priorities had to be in check. I am also amazed by treys transition in getting himself right and keeping it all together. I wouldn't call it "dadrock" that is keeping me from the shows(although I can see that argument at times), but I do find 8 out of 10 shows are very similar, so 2-3 shows a year are plenty, and hopefully I just happen to get one of the magic shows.
Congrats on on the move and discovering your "slower pace", sounds like a great change.

Lee has always been as solid as a rock with an enthusiasm for banksy and love of art like few others. His depth of knowledge (and collection) is unrivaled and over the years has been the voice of reason (I am sure for many others too). Top man. Enjoy Hawaii bud.

i'm under larthree at instagram and happy to add you there. i'm not the most active contributor and looking forward soon to adding A LOT more underwater photos (it's going to be turtle overload i'm afraid with hopefully the occasional whale, fingers crossed) on there and flickr but happy to add you there. I just don't want it all public at this site which I hope you can appreciate.

As Lee has made the IG account private, it would be inappropriate for members to say what the pieces were.
You could message Lee and ask. It's up to him whether the info is shared.
