What's With The Downer on Grannies, by Cocteau 101 on Apr 22, 2007 23:41:27 GMT 1, Hello all
With all the talk of Morons, what's with the downer on Grannies
Just think there has been a lot of people down on Grannies as not a classic Banksy.
I actually love it, it captures the old punk in me.
Why is everyone down on it, is it just it really kicked in the bagging on POW or do people genuinely think it's not up to much.
Shout me down but it's my favourite of the LA prints.
Let the debate begin!

What's With The Downer on Grannies, by Cocteau 101 on Apr 22, 2007 23:54:10 GMT 1, Hi Lesroy
Yeh I sense a general air of apathy towards Grannies. Maybe I'm wrong but I think it will be a future classic. For me has the same vibe as Queen Vic that type of English idiosyncrasy.
But that sounds like b******s so I'll shut up now and drink my beer.

Guess this is why we all have different tastes. I'd put grannies tied at the bottom with Sale Ends for the LA prints. I like trollies the best, then applause and can't decide between festival and morons which comes next But I woudlnt complain if I had a whole set.

My DIY is not the best, but I've learnt a lot of lessions the hard way, I did get the spirit level out on this one though.

Yeah, the J&J was bought ready framed from Art Republic, and I had Grannies framed to match, bit tricky as it's a larger print, but I think my framer has pulled it off.
