Hi

Congratulations on a clear sales thread! I can see it's well framed but I don't like the frame to be honest but the image is strong.

May I ask why you got it framed without seeking approval? Or did you hope she would "come round" once it was home?

My comment was immature, but I guess I felt irked as you were asking here the same price as what it wasn't selling on the bay for. As you have since adjusted that, which I think is more respectful, I apologise for the mild trolling, and wish you luck.

Nice print, but I HATE the frame, does nothing for me whatsoever, no doubt its a quality job as per usual from MFM, but that old skool ornate stuff is not my cup of tea at all - GLWTS though! Most of these seem to of come up on the secondary market so nice to see someone framing there`s - even if you are now selling

Spot on really - I was hoping once it was framed up and on the wall it might grow on her but alas not.

From then on I didn't see much benefit in holding onto it when we can find another MW that we both like.

It's a lovely frame and Gary did a superb job - so hopefully it's priced fairly.

Offers are always welcome.

Good try.... I am sure MFM did a great job - its just not my cup of tea - assume it suits where you wished to hang it so thats why framing (same as art) is personal!

GLWTS - its a strong image and I hope it goes to a good home..... also good luck with the replacement MW replacement - there are a number of good images out there and some of his collaborations are also good (the ones with Snik are good in my opinion).

Don't like much these series as well. I prefer the dancing series, Snik collaborations and one or another solo work.

What if you bought her some chocolates?

I think the frame would have worked with an antique style gold mount over the white border.

Altho i'm not too keen on Whatson's art with people in it.

The effect works well with his animal subjects and still lifes.

[Geezer Mate]

Nice but I agree with Ploppi (first person ever to do that) the white mount looks a bit odd x

[phischa]

I quite like the framing by having a real tagged oil still life (without the border of course). I've seen some originals from MW which looked impressive. The effect is lost by printing both, the still life and the tags.

I wish more artists had their prints printed all the way to the edge.
I don't like having a border forced on me

It's a shame you felt the need to edit the original post which had the pics and price.

I never understand this, unless the buyer asks specifically. It's a nice guide for others on the forum.

A simple 'SOLD in the header would suffice.

Was £900 > £800....don't know where it went from there!

[Art Fan 2011]

Haha, Doubt it sold with that frame - look out for it on the bay! OP had been asking 900 which was a but punchy imo! I agree, seems silly deleting the listing info.
