DOLK Prints, Sleepwalker & Chief at HMP, by The Fool on May 5, 2015 21:01:19 GMT 1, Yeah indeed. But the one and only thought it gave me to discuss is: "why people see him as an artist?" please tell me what do you see of artistic in his production! I can't see any particular "stencil" skill in Dolk, any idea coming from his "oeuvres" neither Expectations were very high for Dolk since its been awhile since he has released anything. Such a shame. From what I was told, Dolk was Norwegians favorite to push like he was something very special. They tried to do the same with Dot Dot Dot. This newest release has to be alarming for people collecting his work as a possible investment. Its def on the way down in flames imo after seeing this release.

DOLK Prints, Sleepwalker & Chief at HMP, by Larry David on May 5, 2015 21:06:22 GMT 1, Got to laugh as these are without a doubt poor, and I have a few Dolks, however they will sell out, HMP and the server will f... up and they will be on eBay by the end of the day for 2/3 x release price. As for the market crashing on his other works just cannot see the likes of Teddy, Kitty or PP suddenly becoming cheaper, a great print is a great print, regardless if the latest release is pants.

This newest release has to be alarming for people collecting his work as a possible investment. Its def on the way down in flames imo after seeing this release. your observation is comical.  . Not sure about you but having a ton of faith in an artist who has around 5 strong images overall is not a consistent trend. "Consistency" Is the best thing an artist can be. He does not need WOW images every release. If you want to help "Dolk", how about you be critical as well as praising of his work when its needed. As plenty have said Teddy, PP and Kitty are the strongest. I personally like Evolution and Zooacide. Dolk selling out on this upcoming release once again means nothing. I can tell you this. I see plenty of Dolks work on ebay and by same sellers up for 6 months now. Not sure what you would call that trend if not "Stale".

Each to their own but i bloody love it. Feel free to help me out if you're not going for this! Aside from paying cost and postage, I will also take you out for a candlelit meal for two...no promises on what happens after.

DOLK Prints, Sleepwalker & Chief at HMP, by coller on May 5, 2015 22:48:56 GMT 1, Really surprised that so many people are offended by 'Sleepwalker' - seems like it's just saying you can do whatever you dream, you sometimes create your own barriers, etc. Does anyone actually think he's making a statement at the expense of the handicapped?
The chief is okay but could've been executed much better. The blue background looks off, and the 3x is a nice idea but the buffed part looks really off as well (you can get all meta and say that buffers don't care about aesthetics, but it just looks bad to the point where it will keep it from walls).

My buddy told me the original fire chief has the graff over it. So Its suppose to be a shot at whatson for copying Dolk with the graf stuff. Also, the "sleepwalking" possibly was showing the fraud of society..and that while he acts paralyzed, when he's not thinking about scamming. he's walking fine.
Was a good take on the images that went completely over my head.

Pretty sure he is asking if there will be more colors. He is hoping from what I get from it. Also hoping the x3 chief comes without the grey missing part but doubt it will.

Most of the sleepwalker interpretations seem like a stretch. At best, the message isn't being well communicated (and not in a good, art ambiguity kind of way).

It sure as hell doesn't mean that Dolk is now on his way to crashing and burning. Not even close. Like FR pointed out, pig mask, bombsuit and praying girl, were horribly received as well. Then he pumped out a few gems like Crown, Idea Painter and Vandal. Not every print that every artist produces has the midas touch 
Were those gems you mentioned really good? Care to explain in what ways? I think I am just one who didn't get the concept or beauty of his works. Am I missing out something?

DOLK Prints, Sleepwalker & Chief at HMP, by sake on May 6, 2015 7:17:31 GMT 1, I know several people that would jump on the opportunity to buy dolk at reduced prices if this ship is sinking. I have cash in hand if someone feels like selling at reduced prices. As for the sellers at ebay: If you try to sell a Toy for 1670 ยฃ it wont move. If you try to sell me one for 1000ยฃ I'll take it in an instance.
As for the ones that dont get his work, you are missing out, its playful and fun. Not saying that everyone needs to like it, but that is why it is popular.
Street art wise these are not the best images seeing as nobody actually gets the sleepwalker and that the chief appears to be just fun.
I will be trying to get both 3x chief and reg. chief.
Reg might go to wall, maybe not, if not I'll try to trade it for some of his other works. Still want crown, toy, gwt and praying girl.
