What's your friends and family reaction , by GMA on Aug 5, 2018 13:43:54 GMT 1, The friends that have come over always ask about them and like being shown around while I explain to them who it's by and give them a little story about how I got it. They're always shocked at the cost of framing, but in fairness I still am too hah. Overall we get positive feedback. A few of my friends were over this weekend and I took them for a walk down North Street to see the Upfest walls, one piece in particular resonated so well with my friend, she went to the gallery and bought it there and then

What's your friends and family reaction , by yorkie on Aug 8, 2018 14:19:51 GMT 1, So, I have a load of framed Leo Boyd 'computer head' in my office and when people come into the office they always ask 'why' - they like them but ask why?
I always say that when I was young I did a computer science degree and apparently then working in IT with 'computers' means that you are able to fix any piece of computer equipment, are a dab hand with all thing electrical and know everything there is to know about telecommunications and as such you are THE MAN to go to for these issues!
But truth be told - I really just love the images and the prospective that they have on life and it reminds me of my computer programming background and frankly I really dont care if they like them or not - I like them and they make me smile every day!
