WHAT ART WILL YOU BE AFTER IN 2017?, by honestcrooks on Dec 26, 2016 22:39:13 GMT 1, Some new/classic D*Face and I really hope Parra does something again in the spirit of the size of "Get out of the car". Good large screenprint and decent edition size. Also any interesting releases from CaseStudyo (a new Parra item coming out in January) Oh! And hopefully a Paul Insect Meteor Nights or alike! Been on the lookout for a decent priced one for way too long .
However, I feel I should be unloading a bunch of art instead of buying some more... how well

D*FACE Artwork, VALUATION, by honestcrooks on Dec 26, 2016 22:32:01 GMT 1, Seems a bit high. You can find them at galleries for 1.7k and they are still unsold. Around 1.2-1.4 should be more accurate I think. Cool, I was looking for one myself
Join the club bud

THE CAGE OF THE BODY TO THE SOUL (New Sandra Chevrier print), by honestcrooks on Dec 22, 2016 13:37:30 GMT 1, It's a print of a photograph of a canvas. What do we expect? It's not a digital image made in Photoshop, so it's normal that if you take a picture of a canvas that is dirty or has some paint smudges, that it's translated to the print.
What I think they could've done better though, was printing the "canvastexture" over the entire paper. That makes the difference between image and paper less hard on the eye and more acceptable.
I saw it too yesterday and it didn't bothered me (because of the mentioned reason). But yeah, I feel they are rushing things a bit with their releases and don't think stuff through enough. Get the money while she's hot I guess? :-)

Should we accept flipping on this forum , by honestcrooks on Dec 19, 2016 15:05:15 GMT 1, Stupid question: why don't the guys who really want prints to hang it help each other to score at releases - without any profit, just to help a guy out and get f5ing support when you need it? Takes some buyers of the market for the flippers and some prints of flippers hands. Not that stupid. We are with a small group of friends who look out for each other this way. Great way to score what you want and makes it less hard on them feelz whenever you miss out anyway.

DFace "Till Death Do Us (P)Art" PRINT RELEASE 16.12.16, by honestcrooks on Dec 16, 2016 17:21:41 GMT 1, so, what your saying is - its different to every other site ? People can add to cart and then they have 10 minutes to purchase or it becomes re-available. I'm not saying people aren't carting them. I'm just saying that even though it is sold out (as in inventory 0), some webshops need a manual removal of the "add to cart" and as long as the admin doesn't do that, it gives a automatic message of "items are carted or sold out".
Chances are indeed people are carting them (God knows why if you don't want to buy it ) but it could be that without manual removal of the button, you could still get that message of "sold out or carted" in a week

Nope, didn't get one, but in afterthought, I'm glad I didn't. The more I see it, the less I like it For 400gbp there are better things out there than that, right? ;-)

Sandra Chevrier Artwork, VALUATION , by honestcrooks on Dec 15, 2016 14:22:52 GMT 1, Print prices seem mental IMO - just sold a nice original at what i believe to be a fair price, if her prints can really attain that kind of level then my buyer has had a result ....I'm sure if I'd asked 2.5k I'd still be sitting on it..... Seems the market is running away with itself but I can't see those prices being sustainable ^This
Since that 1 auction sold that screenprint Chevrier for 9k, people think they have gold in hands. It's not that because it's listed on eBay for x, that is will sell for x. I hope that Chevrier will rise in value, but I'm afraid that people overestimate her current value.

DFace โข Union Jacked Print, by honestcrooks on Dec 9, 2016 16:11:21 GMT 1, There is an imminent release buy I think it is a shirt. I've messaged COA a few times to see if they had restocked any of her T-shirts they produced, so that sounds promising:) Funny thing, Sandra asked on Facebook what people thought of an early draft of her shirts/sweats. I made a mockup and messaged her that it could be better (cocky as I am). Funny to see that she released that exact mockup a few months later.

Inside Art Collectors Homes, by honestcrooks on Dec 9, 2016 11:37:27 GMT 1, Thanks again for all the nice comments about our printwall at home! For those that are interested in something more than printed art, here's another part of the living room with a little backstory.
This large wooden "box" was originally designed to be a display for my designer toys. But from the moment this was ready, I got tired of collecting toys and sold everything At that moment, I had no place to keep a large part of my framed prints that didn't get up on the wall yet, so it became a storage box for a while:
After I moved most of the frames to the studio upstairs, the display box felt a bit empty, so we filled it up with cushions and it became a reading nook/seating to watch movies on the projector. (This is the left part of the reading nook, and for the cyclists amongst us, this is my other baby in front of it )
And this is a table/armrest/bookshelf at the other side inside the reading nook with one of my favorite Parra sculpts ever:
But I have to admit, from time to time, I still use it as a storage box (until my wife makes me drag them upstairs and store them again. )

Inside Art Collectors Homes, by honestcrooks on Dec 9, 2016 11:14:41 GMT 1, I have that Parra brush show poster too, but noticed you cropped out the chunk of text in it! Good way to bring the brush into focus but it would break my heart to cut the poster up. Anyway, very nice wall, am doing a revamp of a small room at home and thinking to fill it with art like that. Hi Natstan! Thank you! Yup, it is indeed from the Parra Asphalt poster. I didn't like the total image of the print, but thought the brush was something that could work well framed as a stand alone. Just a hint: If you plan on doing a complete wall, be sure to draw a mockup in a program like Adobe Illustrator or something like that, so you are sure (well, 99% sure ) that every print fills the right gaps. This is how I've done it and I'm very glad I did
