If I could find a piece of art as good as Grace by Buckley I would sell it all!

thanks for the props and the sh*t. i was given a choice of pieces and chose this one, it was in my $ budget and i liked the image. i have 150+ pieces in my collection (definately not all street art, i own originals by chueh, brandon bird, kii arens, michael matheson, issac pierro, kozik, ron kurnian, mike giant, soto, etc etc etc) and thought it would be different for the house...not like im going out to get a taz devil tattooed on my arm (no offense to anyone here who might have one, haha).
and didnt mean to create negativity/debate amongst board members..not that im against different points of view being expressed...just wanted to share a piece i had been waiting for and was stoked to display.

Just to check. We're looking at a knock off Hirst Spot painting with a dripping Daffy Duck on top, yeah? My point is that it does not bear criticism on any level so why would i even want to try. Its poorly executed, of very dubious meaning and looks plain ugly. If someone has paid money for this and they enjoy it fine. If you lot can sing its praises others should be allowed to counter that. So what if you'd prefer it on your wall over a Parla, is that supposed to be some stamp of approval? Hope this helps. Just being as flippant and as general as you are with your previous comment. This is fun, it makes me smile and on the wall it'd be something everyone (well seemingly except you) can find some enjoyment in. As for "stamp of approval" I've not idea what you're going on about... personal view yes, or are only you allowed one? Take off the "poorly executed" part of your statement above, as I don't believe it is and look at the "of dubious meaning and just plain ugly" - you sure you've not go the artists your talking about mixed up?

To be fair, having seen the street piece photos above i think it works much better especially with the headless body. Still don't think much of the canvas though.

i would rather have a print than a canvas, this looks a bit messy for me. Banksy bought one of these last year.
