I’m Pregnant! Advice please (art, obviously haha), by hollie on Mar 25, 2022 23:51:43 GMT 1, So I’m looking to get a print for my first baby (due in august!) that would represent how much they will mean to me and my husband. Long story short, it’s basically a miracle I got pregnant as I’ve been really sick…..
The obvious example is stik’s “baby” or “big mother” but they are waaaaaay out of my price range.
Any other ideas forum members?

Have you looked at Loie Hollowell’s prints?

How about getting a panda print as it is a miracle when they have babies as well?
A Martin Whatson Panda is around £2k, but Hama Woods should have a Panda print released by Graffiti Prints within the next few months that will be a lot cheaper. Both would be child friendly.

I’m Pregnant! Advice please (art, obviously haha), by Charlie Bronson on Mar 26, 2022 0:38:24 GMT 1, Congrats on the baby❤️ Having immediate family/loved ones who struggled to get pregnant, but finally did, and in doing so made me a happy uncle, it makes me happy to hear. I’ve always liked the idea of Camilla D’Errico pieces in baby nurseries. She has this adorable series called “Bees”, that would look great in a nursery imho. She also offers a bunch of very reasonably priced prints of her other works, which are also quite adorable.

Children are such a blessing.
Every moment you spend with a child is not as good as the next one will be. The love just grows and grows.
Congratulations.
As for art, find an artist that isn’t that well known who will paint all the walls of your nursery. It’s easily done.
And it can easily have a Graf feel to it.
Please let us know what you do.

Having been through the worst of it with me Coach, I was dying to tell you some happy news for once!
Thanks for your unwavering support even when we’d only just “met”. They don’t make ‘em like you anymore, haha!
You know my style - any names you wanna share who could graff up the nursery? Is Parla available? 😏 I’ll settle for haring if not. When I win the lottery haha
Seriously though an artist who would rate doing a wall would be so so cool.

Advice please (art, obviously haha), by hollie on Mar 26, 2022 1:53:14 GMT 1, My heartfelt congratulations to you both, you must be beside yourselves 🤍 Have you seen Ces McCully’s stuff. Very simple typographic stuff that would look great in a nursery. Just maybe not the ‘slow punched’ one.
Literally a life saving baby. Couldn’t have come at a better time. Absolute joy!!!

Any other ideas forum members? Congratulations! Over the moon for you as miracle babies are 🥰. You could also buy something that means a lot to your husband and yourself- a symbol of your love. I know baby images are cute but when they get a bit older, you may want an image that lasts. Like your love- eternal. 🖤
By far the best advice!
Big congratulations to you and your husband! ❤️

Stik book posters, Fanakapan balloon art, Mighty Mo, Rowdy, Sweet Toof to name a few. My son has all these artist on his bedroom walls since he was born and he loves them. There are some pics of his bedroom on my Instagram Congrats by the way, it’s pretty full on being a parent but it’s really great too.

I know this is about art, but make sure you don't let your baby get into any bad habits. Sleep train as soon as you get a chance.

My suggestion - get on Instagram and have something commissioned.
Check out paper cut artist, Emily Hogarth. I’ve used her a few times for wedding presents. Her commission list is lengthy but she’ll create something truly wonderful with huge sentiment.
And huge congratulations. Make the most of those last remaining lie-ins… 😂😉

« Holding hands » by Stik? Cheap entry point.
« Core » by Vhils? (One of my favorite print)
Then I like the art of Seth and Kunstrasen (open to make some commissions at decent price) which imho work well in child places!

I’m Pregnant! Advice please (art, obviously haha), by christiangul on Mar 26, 2022 10:53:36 GMT 1, Congratulations!
When “we” got pregnant we started to do the same research as you. Haha.
We ended up with a few sugar sweet prints but they got a bit to sweet, and sold again.
We ended up with Dot Dot Dot - Vandal King.
They come in four colors; blue, pink, black and cyan.
Something for both genders and all tastes.
Also I would throw in another suggestion and that is something from Mike Lee.
Congratulations!

I’m Pregnant! Advice please (art, obviously haha), by JAlternatión on Mar 26, 2022 14:42:15 GMT 1, Congratulations! We had our first one just over 9 months ago so I went on a similar journey for some art for him. He's got an Ernest Zacharevic Jurrasic Bark ready for one wall and is probably going to get a Haring dog too. They seemed really kid friendly images and hopefully he'll grow to love them.
He adores my Blek Crooner. Sometimes looking at it is the only thing that calms him down at night. Now he waves to it everytime he goes past. Melts my heart.

With my little one, we have a routine during bedtime where we go around and say goodnight to all the smiling Murakami flowers (I have 4 prints in her room). I love when she waves to them and says 'nite nite'. |

I'm not sure if this is the type of Art work you're looking for but maybe try Bumblebeelovesyou.
You might try messaging him and see if he's available to do a commission piece.
