Given that there isn't a thread, today I picked up my framed hand-finished Conor Harrington, Tjhe Canrival Goes On, and here are some pics of it. Good work from the guys at Frameworks.

thanks peeps - I wanted to go for a roman/greco type frame to set the tone of the piece - and it really does look sweet

Cheers mate, love Conor's work, really inspires me.

really nice frame job, complements a very fine print.

[Harveyn]

That is very nice. Well done to the 25 who picked one of these up.

[Zippy]

My print from the 100 edition turned up on Tuesday. Will be be back from the framers in a few weeks. I reckon they're still plenty available. If it was POW they would have sold out instantly!

Phone them mate, they're very good

[alsbabar]

i still have an unframed signed print (not a handfinished one), will sell at cost (£315) if anyone wants it

[manty]

I like this very much, not really into him, but this would look pretty cool on the wall :-)

[ABC]

Very nice, wish I got one, although the 100 Ed, which I got is still a cracker for the price.

[seidbereit]

Hmmm... I was a bit critical of that when I first saw the pics of it freshly picked up and still unframed, but now that it's framed up it does look very nice indeed. I think the fact that it now has a border around it again kind of helps to hem in that "enthusiastic" hand-finishing a little. Nice job alsbaber.

[pramface]

sorry but all of these prints look crap with the paint on

why did he paint all over them? apart from feeling 'guilty'

Because that's his style, and what a cracking style it is too.

[pramface]

eh?

he painted over the image, obscuring it, because thats his style?
this print was fine as it was, didn't need the fiddling

i have both prints pram, and if the non HF version was better it would be framed. You know how it is with online art, it has a different impact when you see it in the flesh and this is no exception. When you know each piece is unique, as well as knowing that Conor is a fantastic talent. It certainly does tent my pants

[pramface]

fine alasababbar

all subjective anyhow
