Modern Art (Banksy)
 

And you thought RC racing was expensive....

I have developed a bit of an expensive habit of late..

My collection now stands at 3 Banksy's, an Anthony Micallef and a few other fine British artists. Still awaiting my latest purchase of a Faile print.

If I'm not carefull I'll run out of wall space and money.. :blush:

Anyone else share my addiction?

nope

If you're spending random money im gonna pimp my website! <cough> www.creativecaptures.co.uk</cough :D

Some of the Banksy work is really quite hard hitting.

I have some artwork in the house but i had it done to match the colours of the house when i bought it, i suppose you could say they were one offs.

I have signed books from a photographer i used to work for called Tom Wood and some nice postcards by Steve Diet Goedde .

I keep seeing prints i'd like by various 'togs but the house is still being decorated so dont really want to buy them yet as they'll get wrecked :( missus says i have enough stuff of my own we can use anyway lol :p

my issue with banksy is that the portraits of art he dose using stencilling show little talent for the Tags he puts on walls and that it is a quick and easy form of graffiti- I do like his satire style and his anti views but its just a copy of blek le rat and I find it adds to his laziness of work.

hark at you millzy..would you like some wine with that pipe? :)

He is right though. If you look at the body of work there is so much Blec and Warhol influence it isn't even funny as it carries with it an English witt.
