Will do, They seem to be somewhere in a kind of UPS limbo. They managed to screw up delivery for the show and now no one seems to know where they are. As soon as I get them they'll be made available online and i'll give a shout out here....

Laz are currently selling original drawings by Kelsey Brookes for ยฃ75, Conor Harrington for ยฃ750 etc
Anyway, as I said good work - show looks nice.

I think way too much emphasis is put on items selling out. I totally appreciate that way of thinking, but imo, many artists and galleries of this scene have been guilty (in the main) of "over-eager" pricing. Regardless of whether the pieces all sell or not, I agree with Bradpitt. I feel that some of the guys are asking a lot of their buyers. It's not meant as an insult to the artists or the quality of their work at all and I hope it isn't taken as such. I like Ben Slow's and Snik's work and I've been a fan of Grafter's since day one, but I don't think ยฃ500 or ยฃ600 is reasonable, especially for a mass-produced image and especially in the current climate. Good luck to them all anyway and I wish them great success in the future. Sounds like this show was a lot of fun.

it did look a fun show, but its the same, uninspired stuff, especially at such high prices

22 Artists, 1 sculpter & a shit load of paint, by Sundowner on Apr 11, 2009 23:16:18 GMT 1, Today was great, completely different from anything else going on in this area and very relaxed, certainly compared to the POW open day last December, which is really the only other show I can compare it with.
It was really good to meet some of the artists, particularly Eyesaw and Don (the Queen's Tears image is a classic in the making).
Big thanks go to Grafter for taking the time to do me an awesome custom colour Sid on hardboard - very, very pleased with this one! ;D

22 Artists, 1 sculpter & a shit load of paint, by K-Guy on Apr 12, 2009 0:13:11 GMT 1, In response to this.... I thought generally there was quite a lot of new stuff at the show. I agree that a few of the images have been seen before but only via the net so for me it was great to see stuff in the flesh. When you say 'uninspired' I think you're being unnecessarily cruel, there's a lot of craft in some of those pieces and I'd like to see you do any better. Also, if you'd been there today at the live paint, you could of probably picked something up for free or for 20 quid or less. We all contributed to covering a whole transit van for free - the bloke and his misses drove off very happy.

ben slow - push the button = nick walker headless astronaut don - queens tears - cauty t**t - same image, different colourway (in an edition of 10) stickee print - the same image he always does k-guy - canvases from 1/2 years ago?
i dont think im being cruel, it seems many people had fun on the day and u all put on a good show, but i stand by the uninspiring comments, i never said the work was bad, on the contrary, it is good, but it is nothing new
as for could i do better? im not asking ยฃ100's of pounds for my work
