Those look great! Now which one to choose????? I wish the edition size would vary for each one, then it would make it less difficult to choose!  |

Interesting to monitor if those prints get as much love as his usual little spaypaint on notes... doesn't look that way for now...

I am thinking the same way. The black really makes the dollar bill seem "dirty" and makes more of a statement. |

I will always take a hand stenciled print on a dollar bill, over a large 12 color screen print on art paper. I wish I could have nabbed that large "departure of witches."  |

Original stencils on notes is what Penny is about, almost cheapens the concept if it's screenprinted?!
Love his work but this is the first time i've seen the 'add to cart' still available! I'm sure they'll sell pretty quick though!

Original stencils on walls and canvases etc is what Banksy is all about but my failure to find an affordable one has meant that I am reduced to buying the cheapened concept of screenprinted paper. I'm sure you know what I mean.  These classic Pennys will look great and for a 12 colour screenprint will still represent a bargain at circa £200 compared to whatever other art is out there at the same price. Original on notes is always best though agreed. |

meh, google a picture of cherubs, one click filter, rake in the cash.
At least with the og's you can see how much time and effort goes into making the work. An easy easy pass for me.

The email I got from him direct said editiion was £205. Get to the site and it's £240. Weird, no?
Speaking of - getting a bit pricey for me... and not yet sold out.

Kind of like the Gold myself... but don't really dig Penny much.
Maybe if I'd seen this image on the street I'd have a better feeling towards these type of prints.

Just going by the words of the man himself. It's a good question anyway if someone can answer it. I know the process of screenprinting uses 1 colour per screen normally so I'd also be happy to know if it is possible to go through the process with a single screen and loads of colours if anyone is able to shed light on it. |

You couldn't be too precise using multiple colours on a single screen. People generally do that to create rainbow effects or gradients.

No from me. Pennys work is about intricate stencils not screenprints.

does a 12 colour screenprint have to have 12 layers then? or just 12 colours? ps, thats a real question btw. As far as I know (and I am happy to be corrected) it would be 12 seperate screens, one for each colour or layer, but the same colour may use two different screens (layers) if it was used for the background and later the same colour was used to add detail over other colours. Using the different colours at the same time requires a different process to screen printing. Not that it makes much difference it is the image that is really important not to process it took to get it, although screen printing is a more traditional way to produce art prints and much harder to produce good results, when done well though in my opinion the image really stands out (I think anyone with an Eelus Not every thing is so black and white would agree) |

I could be wrong but i assumed CMYK screens can produce any colours using 4 screens only?

You're basically correct saint. Most all color printing is based on that system. And most colors in the rainbow can be approximated, but very specific colors cannot. Vibrant blues for example are hard to replicate using CMYK. It's common to add additional specific colors to improve a print job (metallic inks, logos that use specified colors, or products that want/need exact colors, etc).
