Print maybe this year too, book also should be this year. Also, that etching is simply stunning.

Canโt believe this is going under the radar on here. Itโs an amazing etching. Some people seem to caught up with a rat on a bit of cheap paper... yes I wouldnโt mind one of those either but this etchings on a different level. If I had to pick one it would be the phlegm hands down. Itโs not always about the money or the hype.

Depends on how many he does. He keeps his editions relatively low considering he always sells out instantly. A lot buy to flip then get stuck with them. Hopefully 150 Ed at sub ยฃ300. Thatโs a lot of work heโs put in so would benefit and deserve a higher edition.

Phlegm monumental new etching on the horizon!, by Dahmer on Oct 10, 2019 22:33:47 GMT 1, I guess it might be part of the Bruegel exhibition in Belgium considering he is painting there at the moment actually.
If he does make a proper print run though, they wont be huge as he says the the copper etching is a4 in size, which only makes more impressive when you see the detail. Very special and talented artist, hands down one of my favourites.

Im SO keen to add a Phlegm to my little art collection. Such an amazing artist! I love how his images transport you to another reality. Hopefully Iโll be able to snag one. Totally understandable why his art is in such high demand.

Phlegm monumental new etching on the horizon!, by wottagunn on Nov 12, 2019 23:00:41 GMT 1, Hello everyone.
This year's been wild. I started with Mausoleum of the giants, a ephemeral sculpture show in Sheffield where i took over an abandoned factory in the middle of winter and spent four months working myself to death. The show had a never ending queue every day and over 12 thousand visitors through the doors in the few weeks we were open.
After the show i made the decision to focus on engraving work instead of traveling painting murals. I was asked by KBR (Royal library of Belgium to collaborate with them on their Bruegel in black and white show. The show commemorates the 450 year anniversary of the renaissance master Pieter Bruegel by showing his complete print work. My work has always been strongly inspired by this golden era of printmaking so the collaboration was a perfect fit for me.
I was asked to engrave a copper plate inspired by Bruegel using the same techniques he would have used to make his print in 1558. My copper plate took three months of painstaking work to engrave with a Burin. The completed copper plate and the print is on show in Brussels until the 16th of February 2020.
This print is an important milestone for me as i've worked really hard to hone my skills as an engraver over the past few years. It's by far the most richly detailed work i've made so far and marks the beginning of a body of work i'm very excited to share with everyone.
The print is called 'Luxuria' and the edition size is 350. Hand printed on mould made Fabriano Rosaspina 280gsm paper. The plate size is 29.5cm wide by 22cm high. The border size varies slightly between prints but all have roughly 2cm beyond the plate mark. Each print is hand made by myself in my garden shed so expect small differences between prints.
For anyone visiting the show in Brussels you can buy the print direct from the library shop as this release is split between there and our online release.
Have a good holiday everyone. I'll be straight back in the new year with lots more news about books prints and shows i have in the works.
Thanks as ever for the interest in my work. Your support keeps me company in the long hours i spend at the drawing table. My allocation will go on sale this Friday, November 15th at 5pm GMT/12 PM EST in the online shop.
Cheerio.

Phlegm monumental new etching on the horizon!, by kapusta on Nov 12, 2019 23:47:33 GMT 1, These are extremely reasonably priced considering his popularity and amount of work that went into this. Glad he upped the edition size and lowered the price. Can't help but think most other artists would charge stupid money for this.

Absolutely love this re-worked old master print, wish more artists in the Urban genre would work in this medium. Unfortunately, we are all just bombarded with screen prints, yes Banksy, talking about you too. Enjoy seeing the craftsmanship and pride that goes into a piece such as this. Well done!

Primarily because only a portion of the run is making it online. The rest are in person, as per the email.

Ah, yes. Too bad. Well, I will put the money that I save on not buying this into some cool poetry instead.
