David Walker - limited edition print- SUPERSIZE !, by eschiff on Jan 6, 2011 22:32:09 GMT 1, pretty happy with this. AP version.
It's really hard to capture (especially with an iphone) how much handfinishing is done on the print. Most of the black and silver areas have been hand done and i think only the black/white face is screenprinted. There even seems to be some blue painted in there.
The brooklynite invite which he signed...nice

David Walker - limited edition print- SUPERSIZE !, by jackstranger on Feb 15, 2011 15:17:58 GMT 1, I am still very apprehensive and somehow shocked with the prize I received.
It is a beautiful and massive (125X100) piece of art that I was really looking forward to receive and frame but unfortunately it has some 'extra artwork' that really ruined the print and I will never have this framed...
The gallery 'signed' the print in blue mark pen...
This can't be even croped out because on the left side is DV signature.

David Walker - limited edition print- SUPERSIZE !, by jusdeep on Feb 15, 2011 15:48:25 GMT 1, That's a real shame Jack, I would be left feeling in two minds with what to do. Why on earth didn't they write it on the back? Such a shame they felt the need to ruin what would have been a great print and fantastic prize. Bitter taste!

That would be nice Wiz, but unfortunately I got no reply to the messages I sent him. I am, however, considering the fact that the messages did not reached him.

This point remains, you have a one of kind, hand signed David Walker print that is truely unique. you was a deserved winner and we feel this is still a great prize. if you are that unhappy then i suggest you sell it and fill the void with another work.
How many people have actually seen a real 'proof' ? with notes and comments? they are truely rare and highly collectable.
sorry for your situation, but there are a ton of people who would love this proof print.

It is desirable to have one of a kind signed printer proof, but to have a work written with 'not for resale' and signed 'squarity.com' on blue mark pen really ruined the work and that is something not nice to display as part of an art collection.
At the moment I don't know what to do with this work as I wanted it framed and displayed, but not like this. I will, of course, not follow your suggestion to sell it as, even if I wanted to (what I don't), I doubt someone would value a work with this particular inscriptions.

David Walker - limited edition print- SUPERSIZE !, by Squarity on Feb 15, 2011 18:33:33 GMT 1, The print was a giveaway, post and packaging alone cost ยฃ55, the print proof cost around ยฃ40-60 to produce and as i worked very closely with David on this print, it is in my interest as a publisher and David's as an artist, that this print did not end up being sold, hence it was marked on the front as proof, because we never intended to sell it, the fact we gave it away means that whoever ended up with it has a piece of the creative process and David's print making history. we could have wrote on the back in hindsight, yes but then this may look like it was planned and it was not. David and squarity decided to 'give away' a piece and that is what we did.

David Walker - limited edition print- SUPERSIZE !, by kme666 on May 14, 2011 15:05:23 GMT 1, Just taken delivery of No. 3/3 oversize print of the Unknown 1, that I managed to pick up at the recent London West Bank, Urban Art festival. David was doing a live spraying and had the pleasure of meeting him. I'd post a picture on here if i could work out how to!!
