denning originals, by nmbr6 on Nov 20, 2007 2:06:24 GMT 1, Since everyone else is sharing here are some links to my GD original. The thing is huge at 120x120. I love it and you won't see it on the secondary market.
Here is what Guy said about it: "It's a portrait of my agent Le Tunnadine and her husband. He's originally from America, and I think that as with many (not all) American's that come into this country they have an idea that it's some sort of paragon of free speech and personal autonomy. There's a reference to the surveillance culture that the UK is now under (the text about Orwell) and also a little message to Le's husband himself - 'have you got Britain fatigue yet? The sun is black, the painting (which is my way of expressing myself) has been torn but stitched back together - my way of expressing the way I felt about Britain. I can't remember all the other bits and pieces that informed the work but it is one of my favourite pieces. You've bought one of the few pieces that we lived with in our house, on our wall. Much of my work gets replaced with newer work as I live with it to see what needs changing - this painting took a long time to make but I found it a personally rewarding painting. "

Thanks... and it looks even better in person... for some reason pictures never do a Denning original justice, you really have to see one in the flesh to truly appreciate how talented Guy really is...

denning originals, by ctc2 on Nov 20, 2007 4:21:49 GMT 1, Interesting what people are thinking about this. I really like his work. I find it interesting and I really like the texture and darkness of it. However, I find it pretty expensive. Mind you I am in the U.S. and the dollar does not go very far. I know people on here like to say "buy what you like" and to not buy for investment purposes. But if I am going to have to shell out some of these prices for work just because I like it, I do have to think about if my kids are ever going to get anything for it when I stroke out. Just my two cents.
