[Earl Grey 2nd]

** NOW SOLD **

Sadly, due to a change in circumstance, I am selling off some of my pieces. All pieces are currently with me in LA but I am happy to ship them back to the UK (I should be over in the next week or two so I can carry it through customs if you're in London!) and happy to provide a shipping quote via Flight Logistics otherwise.

Local pickup and viewing in LA is OK as well. The work is listed at my cost (I will provide the original receipt) but feel free to make a realistic offer:-

Josh Keyes
“I’ll Love You Till the End of the World” (2017)
Acrylic on panel
28.5" × 17"
72 × 43 cm
** SOLD **

This was one of the headline pieces for Josh’s latest exhibition ”Implosion” at ThinkSpace in Los Angeles last year (www.thinkspaceprojects.com/shows/joshkeyes-2017/show-pieces/).  They also produced a /300 signed print series from it. S

Stunning piece and rare as hen's teeth to buy an original Keyes these days. Gutted I have to sell it. I will also provide the original receipt from ThinkSpace and we will transfer ownership over with Andy there. I havent removed it from the plastic protection (so sorry about the bad pictures - it's just the plastic cover over the top of the painting) but happy for anyone to come view it in person if they are in LA.







PM me with questions or offers.

Stunning! Don't see many JK originals become available - GLWTS

[Earl Grey 2nd]

Thank you! I am open to offers to really is a rare chance to grab an original. I waited bloody years to get one, finally bought on preview before the show opened...and haven't even had a chance to display the piece.

Great opportunity for someone to own a fantastic JK original. Won't go with anything I have up, otherwise I would've definitely taken this off your hands.  Good luck!

I don't get it. Where's all the anti-flipping hoopla?

I, for one, don't care about flipping, but I do find it strange that no one is all over this thread.

Am I missing something? Is reselling an original piece not considered flipping? Perhaps I just don't know the rules.

Is OP selling at cost? Not sure what original price was, but maybe that's it.

It’s being sold at cost.

That makes more sense. I thought I was in some alternate universe.

You still presented a valid question.

This is beautiful!

[Warm Gun]

Stunning piece, and cheaper than many unsigned Banksy prints.

That and the OP is selling a couple originals that would seem odd to be flipping now. Then at the original price or willing to negotiate. Hope your circumstances improve.  GLWTS

Thanks all! The Josh Keyes is still for sale! I am amazed no one has snapped this up as it's so bloody hard to buy JK's originals (I was lucky to be at the preview and they all sold out before the actual event)...but, I get it's a lot of money and beauty is in the eye of the beholder. It does amaze me though that people are willing to drop twice the money on a Mr Brainwash and his legions of helpers that bang that stuff out, than just a bloody good artist who spent about two months painting this. I just spent too much last year, have now quit my job and relocating back to the UK with my family so I have to sell some pieces. I would rather it goes to a good home. If you are in LA, definitely come check it out as it's MUCH more impressive in the flesh. Trust me. The guy is a extremely talented artist and a lot of the subtlety is lost in scan/photos.

I am with you all on the flipping btw, but trust me, I will end up losing money on this piece so that would make me a terrible flipper...!

Any way, if anyone is interested, make me a sensible offer.

Sorry should have added -- you can see the price paid for this Josh Keyes (@ thinkspace) and the Kai & Sunny (@ subliminal) I'm selling on their respective websites. Just add 9% tax on top and that's what I paid, and I will provide the original invoices from the galleries as proof as well.  I have both listed at cost, but open to sensible offers, so I will be losing money on these!   

So yes, I would be the worst bloody flipper if that's my game

Love it!!! Wish I had the cash on hand.

Good luck

Pimpin ain’t easy. Perhaps you should try a more respectful profession

Print (signed edition of 300) available at Thinkspace for $250

[moron]

It's certainly worth the asking price, all things considered. It's a one off painting, plus Josh Keyes paintings not likely to go out of fashion. In some ways he reminds me a bit of Vetriano but less kitsch and to me looks like a good buy.

[Earl Grey 2nd]

Piece now sold! Congrats to the buyer. It's bloody amazing in the flesh. And to those worried about flipping, I ended up losing about $2K on it.

You got out well, Josh Keyes’ secondary market is a big mess.

This one is one of his better though since changing his expression.
