ian francis set of 4 BLK MRKT prints, by absyrd on Oct 8, 2007 18:21:43 GMT 1, Here is mine framed up if you haven't seen it yet.
I like it better than my Micallefs. And I also love the "mystery" or whatever you call it in all of his stuff. If you haven't seen this image close, the girl is wearing torn-up fishnets and has a scraped knee. Wonder what her job may be... and what she has been through...

I think Ian's work is better than most - yes, better than Micallef as well. I know that will piss a lot of people off but, ah well. Just my opinion. Who knows if he is the next best thing or not...but, in my book, he is a completely solid artist with infinite potential.

I think you will get people that will argue against your point. However, who gives a toss. It's such a pointless argument, they are both talented artists with different styles and different themes, so why bother to compare them.

ian francis set of 4 BLK MRKT prints, by verbalkint on Oct 9, 2007 1:09:12 GMT 1, i got an ian francis original on the way. I commissioned it from him. Apparantly he is only doing 2 before starting work on his next LA show in september. I was asked what i wanted and i told him that i wanted whatever he wanted to paint, apparantly he really appreciated the fact that i was happy to leave it up to him and not say 'i want one like death star explodes' etc. I am more exited about this than any other piece of art i have bought, it should be here within 3 weeks so i will post pictures when it arrives
