fake denning, by Guy Denning on Apr 8, 2008 21:33:51 GMT 1, Just to let you all know - there's a fake on ebay. It's the "hands" painting, apparently from my "hands series"...
Now I might've been chemically wasted enough to forget a single painting but not a bloody series. Stay away - mind you they're giving away a free banksy sticker with it so it could be a bargain...
I was going to bid for it to find out what it looked like but couldn't be arsed. Apparently it's also painted on plasterboard. Ironically I've been waiting a week for a delivery of plasterboard for the house so if it had finally turned up I wouldn't be bloody painting on it would I? Can't be boogered to deal with it on ebay (don't know how to in truth) - but anyway, just letting thee all know. Cheers m'dears...

thanks for coming on and telling us.
However, I think you should report it to ebay.
All you do is click the 'report this item' on the bottom of the listing.
I and a few others will too but its cool if it comes from you - the artist!

Go to 'paintings' then 'hands' and it is near the end on the right.

I have a feeling he had no idea who the artist is or was just a little confused

fake denning, by Coach on Apr 9, 2008 0:11:00 GMT 1, Thanks for the heads up Guy.
It was pretty obv to those familiar with GD's work that this was not one of his, tho' I didn't know who it actually was by. Thanks romanywg for the clear up.
That said, I do quite like the piece.

You should be able to contact him through the website.
He's normally great with getting back. Try him again and if no joy, let me know and i'll contact him for you.

Hey Guy, if don't mind signing all these prints for me. You must have forgot when I, I mean you, made them. I'll send them straight away (not thick me, I know plaster board will cost more for postage).
Got to be a kind of weird compliment though. You know you've made it when there's fakes on the bay.
