Sorry I made a mistake. Please don't judge.

How much is London Bridge?

£440 plus tax and delivery

[Dibbs 45]

Sorry I repeated the price. The new style forum seems to show not all the latest entries, so this early in the morning it showed Mrkyuss post.

Rec this, this morning which at the bottom gives notice of an Adam Neate signing on the 13th at Elms Lester for his show

[Deleted]

I'll buck the trend and say the cyclist is my fav. Not sure of the appeal of London Bridge - spend enough time during the day with folks in suits, not sure I want to see any more on my walls while I'm trying to relax.

[johnnyh]

He did a set of originals based on cycling at his last show a couple of years ago. They are let's say not his norm but really unique.

Strange yet I have only seen one new piece the last time I was over at Elms and it used a lot of the techniques in the cyclist originals in the new work although a completely different subject.
That piece was a cracker as well which is why must say very excited about this show.

I think if the cyclist appeals it's a really unique piece. That he really loves his cyclist work and  has done a few pieces now. Think it's because it allows him to really include movement. A lot of his work and this show title refers to Dimensional so I suppose this allows the use of movement as a dimension. Just as he uses movement in  a lot in his portraits.

So you might be bucking the trend on here but are probably on trend with A.Neate I suspect.

Don't like the cyclist. Spend too much of my day with arrogant cyclists.

[chads007]

Can't make the signing next sat due to a family engagement in Leicestershire.
If a kind forum member pick me up a doodled postcard set which were released last year for the history show I would be grateful and would of course reward you with beer money

Probably arrogant people who happen to be cyclists.  

Not all cyclists are arrogant.  I'd suggest this is your bad luck, overend 

I like the cyclist more and more after what Johnnyh said about it.  Nice price too.

Try this thread. I heard it helps.

I hope they will release an edition of The ship of fools, it looks amazing !

[connecta1]

...loved the cyclist piece at the last Elms show, have to say I'm not crazy about either of these editions (thank the lord!)

[Hubble Bubble]

My only gripe with the cyclist piece is - and bear with me here - as a cyclist, it's very rare you'd shift your weight like that if on the flat. Weight shifting when you're out of the saddle is really for hill climbing or accelerating through a rise… it would have looked better if the cyclist had been going up hill.

[JAlternatión]

Tilt the frame when you hang it

[Hubble Bubble]

Now you're talking

[Hubble Bubble]

In fact, if we tilt one print we could have 'The Uphill Cyclist' and if we tilt the other we could have 'London Bridge is Falling Down'

These are nice editions but what's with the edition sizes? 50 or 100 would have been ok but 175? That's quite a lot. I would have preferred a smaller Edition to make them more exclusive. I think Elms have been swayed somewhat by the hug edition of 100 selling out in an hour or 2, not realising of course that most people bought them not to keep but to sell. Basically not sure that Elms really and truly understand the market for these dimensional editions.

Agree with what your saying..these new ones and the last hug (that looked like Neil from the young ones) won't go up in value like the first batch. Been so many on here trying to sell their hug2 blaming their wives (meaning there weren't going up in value so had to try to sell at cost.) Love his work and still aiming to buy the first hug he did, but won't be going do these two.

One day I will buy a nice neate original and when I do I will probably sell my original hug (1st edition).. It's a really great piece though. I also have the reclining nude edition which I think is a fantastic contemporary take on the genre, I prefer it to the hug actually and v surprised it hasn't sold out yet. Have it over the bed and it looks the business.

Pics?

I really like the cyclist and may try and get it. Not keen on London Bridge though - like the idea but the 'dimension' seems to be 1990s wrapping paper.

[Hubble Bubble]

Currently clenching in anticipation of holding out for the 11:55 dump…

[mrkyuss]

This won't sell out, no need to make up your mind today.

I don`t think they will sell out very fast, im a bit put off by the edition size, seems like they are trying to "cash" in on the success of the previous release - im sure they will be available at cost in the coming weeks/months if anyone does miss out!

[Deleted]

i agree

Don't think they will fly out

I would imagine the cost of production costs and the John Jones framing would make these quite a bit to make, so possibly when crunching the figures had to increase the run?

Ready to hang on the wall, they would look silly in a portfolio, and even sillier on ebay

I blame my wife for most things.
