Rene Gagnon 🇺🇸 Graffiti Art • Painting • Art For Sale

[Richard]

Has anyone received a Tesco Graffiti Soup Can print yet? Just wondered if you could post some framed pics if you have!

[alsbabar]

Hi

These beauties were delivered today. I read in the past comments about the box, and I have to say, the box is just as sweet, and its signed. Taken all 3 down to the framers already, will post pics once returned.

Campbells Soup Can


Bridge the Gap - this was done with spray stencil and lots and lots of oil


The packaging box





sweeeeeeeeeeeet

[seidbereit]

Like the campbells one at the top but the canvas looks wastefully large, still quite good detail though.

Second one's horrendous, the carboard box is ok though

[snakes]

Very nice.

Out of interest why framing the canvases. I have mine hung straight on the wall; they just need a little dust from time to time!

[alsbabar]

no no no seid, 2nd one is so good in the flesh - has lots and lots of oil, and if you look closely you will see lots of campbell cans also in the image - trust me it is good in the flesh

[alsbabar]

snakes, i am putting them into perspex boxes

Deffinatly not feeling the pollock-esc piece

[alsbabar]

each to their own cashman, i can tell you this, its absolutely amazing in the flesh, especially when you see the amount of oil's used and the detail of the canvas, its a stunner imo

I have a large abstract by Rene 5' x 3' (maybe bigger) and agree 100%, these things have to be seen in person. The layers and texture cant be captured by photo. The colors and drips and pools of paint are incredible! I was fortunate to check out a solo exhibition he had last year with many large canvas's displayed and instantly thought "Which one am I buying?"

[skitch]

just another wannabee artist in my opinion

Dont get me wrong im digging the stencil !! just not the rest
but im just expressing an opinion

[alsbabar]

cool cashman, keep expressing mate

[roc99]

Got this on Monday. Its hard to tell from the photo but its in a shadow box, looks great in person. I'm going to have to save my pennies for a larger piece!

[JonW]

Anyone know if Rene is on holiday at all? Ive emailed and PMd and he's usually right back at me, but its been a few weeks now... hope all ok for him.

[bankruptcreative]

Yeah, I think he said he was on vacation on another thread a couple of weeks back, so I guess he will be back soon if not yet?

[JonW]

Cool, thanks. I assumed so, but thought I should check...

[Richard]

I just got my Tesco Graffiti Soup print. It is amazing and I have no doubt if it was by a better known artist it would have sold out in seconds! I LOVE IT! Also got a Magenta Creation Board - absolutely fantastic for the price. Will post some pics later!

[Richard]

Photos as promised!

[Richard]

Anyone any suggestions how I should display the Creation board?

[alsbabar]

Titled: Moon Over Manhattan
Cost: £90
Edition: 50

Loving the colours of this

[ricobenfico]

Just how good is Rene?!? I feel his talents are still hidden amongst general forum members.

I bought a double soup canvas a few months ago alongwith a creation board. The canvas is pride of place in my lounge but also looking for idea's on the creation board rather than 'hiding' it in a frame.

Any help guys? Rene?

[alsbabar]

nothing to see here, its just another useless big headed post by me!!!

for those that are interested, I just picked these up from Leonard Villa framers

Soupcans
