On Castle Arts? Thats down to the gallery to be honest, we have spoke about it before, with regards to POA all my prices are fixed by myself and the gallery and are not altered depending on the buyer unlike some galleries, I don't have any control over the work being displayed as POA but I'm always happy to give a price if anyone asks or is interested

Very nice pieces mate!
I love it as a series, but they work well on their own too!

Thanks for that, it's interesting how people seem to like the idea of them as a series, I may play around with this idea soon

Thats exactly the one, I saw it and just loved the idea of somewhere like that that obviously knows it market, taps into the whole binge drinking idea. Places like that fascinate me, also it is looking at the slightly darker, grittier, sometimes seedy side of life which is a theme that suns through all of these drawings

thanks ol

[Oliver Winconek]

Firstly, thanks to everyone who bought one of the now sold out Playtime's over prints, it was really great to have such a positive response to my first screen print.

My new print, based around my painting 'Child of our time' will be available from Castle Arts in Canterbury from Sat 23rd May

Details are as follows -

Child of our time7 layer, hand pulled screen print overlayed with a 3 layer stencil
edition of 50
350 x 525 mm
printed on 300gsm Waterford, hot pressed paper
£100 each + shipping as applicable

Please contact Castle Arts on 01227 766616 or [e-mail] for details/sales etc

to coincide with the print release I will be painting live in the gallery courtyard from 11am onwards, if any of you are around pop in and say hi

Due to the high level of hand finishing on each of these prints, everyone is individual and vary slightly from the photo above

Thanks for that Harveyn, I am more than aware how tight money is for a lot of people at the moment so wanted to keep the price reasonable.

[Oliver Winconek]

Anyone from the forum making it down for the live paint?

[Rourke]

Hi, apologies to keep changing the title of this thread but it seemed to make more sense than creating a new one. For those that are interested, the 2 self portraits and Hayley are up on Urban Angel's site now -

www.urbanangel.com/department/oliver_winconek/


Keen to get people's feedback on my new piece, as much as I love working with stencils I have had a real hankering lately to get back to drawing and painting. The drawings I did, especially the shop fronts were incredibly well received and that has given me the confidence to start work on a new series of paintings. Would be great to hear what people think, more to come...........
