Graffiti Prints archive vaults open today, by Viking Surfer on May 4, 2017 14:27:29 GMT 1, This buying art thing is really starting to turn into an addiction... Like you Viking Surfer I'm trying to be good and not purchase art this year, well anymore art anyway! I purchased my first piece in January and currently have 9 pieces and 6 edition box set on my walls! It's sales like this that make it difficult to say "no more". Some great pieces in this sale IMO. Indeed my friend. What's your favourite artwork you've picked up so far?
The hard part when you first start is just not buying everything. You'll find that most of what you picked up in the early days (with exceptions) no longer makes the wall several years in.
It's always better to save and buy one incredible piece that you'll treasure.

The street work for this series actually got a ton of press. I wouldn't be surprised if they tap in to the media again with this release and a load of average joes think they're getting in on the next Banksy.

Graffiti Prints archive vaults open today, by Viking Surfer on May 4, 2017 12:42:25 GMT 1, Some good pick ups for those who missed out on various drops. Expensive, but still below market value. I'm bowing out and sticking to my no print 2017 rule. You've got to May without buying!, that's good going or maybe a sign of the lack of decent releases. Good luck with the rest of the year. I think you might fail ๐ lol it's actually just been more expensive.
Picked up a unique Invader a while back and a unique Qbic today!
I'm just trying to stick with quality / quantity!

The pictures are just a good way to expose members to new artists or works they may not have seen or heard of.

Invader rฬถeฬถcฬถeฬถnฬถtฬถ historical price information, by Viking Surfer on May 3, 2017 5:06:50 GMT 1, Hi gang, given the two shows and interest around Invader at the moment, combined with some record price realisations at Sotheby's etc., I thought I would investigate what some of the pieces available to the "common man" were going for... you may be surprised. Some of the info was hard to obtain as many sites (artnet, artprice, etc) want you to pay for sales information. Here are some images I made up from Artcurial auction results from 2016 & 2017, plus I will put some individual result cards in a follow-up post for those interested. I only made them for pieces I snagged from the space shop and early on in the game - like many I fear I may now be priced out. Hope you find it useful. had to go tinypic due to errors with embed codes from imgur, open to a better suggestion! Appreciate the post and research. However, 2016 prices and even early 2017 prices are very different from anything you'd see these last 8 weeks.
You'd be hard pressed to get prices anything like this at an auction if it took place this week.

Thank you slipry, gravity1, thisisit and visualverite for doing that.

Art is personal etc, but for those of you who collect his work, out of curiosity what is it about it that speaks to you?

Paul Insect Print, Canvas, WANTED, by Viking Surfer on May 1, 2017 13:07:17 GMT 1, One up for sale at artfido.com. Good luck! Thanks arvegu , saw that one, looks like a great piece. However, being a 1/1, it will go for more than I would be looking to pay. Does anyone know what this went for in the end? Looked a bargain at 2600 when I last saw it. Tried a bit at 2750 but it wouldn't register.

Your latest Art Purchase?, by Viking Surfer on May 1, 2017 4:00:23 GMT 1, Thanks Jingle! It's the regular 'cool grey' edition of 100. My favourite colour way outside of the Gold / Silver edition. It does look great, you could hang that anywhere, that what I like about the grey, some of the colours are a little over powering. I have QJ grey and was wondering if I it would work with mine. Your print is a little darker. I definitely think it would. The hoody of the artist is a darker grey, so the frame would work just as well.
I'd go and see Tim at Darbyshires. I could make an introduction if you like. You pay a premium with them but the quality is second to none and they'll match the colour / finish to your print perfectly. Since using them once, I've never had anything framed elsewhere.
My print is also still there as I'm currently filling a crate for my next shipment to Australia, so you could ask to see mine no problem.
