Great piece, wish I could afford it.

[arcam]

That's an awesome piece. Good luck with the sale.

[Winter]

The one artist I really wish I knew more about

[skelly]

Great piece, I can't wait to own some murakami's myself

[Heavyconsumer]

f**king awesome! If I could spare the cash I'd bite your hand off, one of his coolest pieces imo. Good luck. I quite like a lot of his work, but prefer certain pieces by his underlings, Chiho and Aya in particular. If only City Glow were going for a price I could afford!!!

[craigf]

Bright, colourful, non offensive, unlike most of my pieces

Seriously, a very nice piece ;D

[Harveyn]

That is a seriously nice piece.

[Matt-lock]

loving this

[afroken]

Thanks for the comments everyone. I've priced this to sell quickly so surprised no-one has jumped on it. You wont find one of these for this price, particularly not with a £300 frame job.

[Heavyconsumer]

If I had the dough spare, you would no longer have it mate! I reckon you'd get more than that on fleabay anyway, just stick a reserve on it and let it fly. I have a feeling you wouldn't be short of takers! City Glow by Aoshima recently sold for over USD$5000 (I wanted it but had to give up hope once it was at 2k US), this would surely not go for much less, if not more! I think you'd even find some galleries interested in this piece too. Looks great in that frame, the stuff great wanks are made of!!!

Agreed... that city glow has sky rocketed! I lost interest after 2500 USD.

This Jellyfish is awesome. If you can hold it. You should wait a few months after this upcoming tour through Europe, more people will get exposed to him and you'll get more for him.

The baltic gallery in Newcastle were selling signed aoshima prints for £195 including city glow and signed murakamis for £395. picked up a couple myself.

Give them a try... they might have some left.

I will also post this on the thread

[BongoBongo]

The Baltic had five Aoshima prints available Japanese Apricot, Yuyake-chan - Miss Sunset,
Buildinghead/ Palmtrees, Sky and
Buildinghead / Chameleon at £195 but no City Glow. Their website is only showing the Japanese Apricot as being available. I picked up the Hot Springs print last year and love it.

[ABC]

Baltic, as far as I know do not post prints anymore. You have to pick them up in person.

[Heavyconsumer]

Just called Baltic, thanks for the heads up, but they've been slack with their site and sold out of Aoshimas a while ago.

[craigf]

Pretty impressed there was anyone in today!

[Heavyconsumer]

afro, I love this shit, so I'll save you the shame bumping your own piece!!

[Rsyok]

Baltic are great (if they have any prints in you want)

I bought a Aoshima Buildinghead / Chameleon last November (pre forum membership). Posted the print flat in poly casing.
Really amazing print

This is still available following a deal that went south.

[Heavyconsumer]

good luck mate, you know what I think of this piece! Wish I could bid, but so much I got going on right now, I'm needing to sell some bits too. Hope you get a good price!

[sausageboonwee]

I think there's going to be a few regrets at not buying it. It's a lovely piece and should go for a great price.

[afroken]

Shameless plug for the last 20 mins of the auction!
