Here's what I think. This is probably one of two things:

Either

1. You are ignorant and have been duped by the giftor who (rather bizarrely) went to a fair amount of trouble to dupe you, the beneficiary of their gift.

Or

2. You are a have-a-go con artist trying your luck, hoping that your post will elicit purchase offers from ignorant and easily-duped forum members.


In my opinion, possibility 2 is more likely than possibility 1.

If somebody here desires their own inkjet-on-canvas Banksy knock-off — and doesn't have moral qualms about supporting a copyright-infringing parasite company — try iCanvas in Illinois:

The iCanvas version seems to have a bit more of the border regions of the original Banksy image than magman's.

And if faux vintage is what you're after, purchase clear crackle glaze which cracks when it dries. This will also add some texture to the inkjet canvas when applied with a brush. Alternatively, get the inkjet done on a canvas that already has a base coat of cracked paint.

How do you go from selling Faile Blocks and a book, to look what I found under my bed and I dont know what it is?

yes it's obviously a digital print on canvas... blah. Move on nothing to see here.

This must be the special Del Naja version!

Are you guys sure someone who signed up less than a week ago would be trying to con members here with a fake Banksy?

Gosh darn, what a cruel world! And flat to boot!

To me it looks like an enhanced oil reproduction. These are pretty common with famous works.

I have a Monet.



I'm sure someone will say these are bad. Some are done better than others for sure but I'm sure I'll hear:

'How dare you hang that fake monet image why hang that fake garbage. Your fault you can't afford the original!' Haha

Yes, we're all very concerned about the artistic rights of long dead impressionists.

Yes, and whether one is interested in selling said copies to unsuspecting buyers, which then goes from personal taste to art forgery.

Thanks for the insight everyone!!! So I will be now accepting offers...

$100? 50 for the digital print, plus another 50 for the nice frame!

Sure but let's protect the rights of an anonymous artist that may not be a real person anymore!

There might be a reason they have no issue with WCP!

The seller had this item for sale on the Bay for $25,000, was flagged and removed every time it was listed.

Without Pest Control its worth only what someone will pay...I would deeply consider Whitefish's offer of $35.

Wish Banksy released he Crude Oil pieces as affordable open editions, maybe printed canvases. Sure they would be massively popular.
