great video

The Get Rowdy opening night was fantastic fun and lived up to its name in full.

We have now added the first wave of Rowdy's new artworks to our site. We have started with his 3D pieces (gallery print edition soon to follow). My favorite of his 3D works are the C C Crocodile TVs...

Rowdy and Sweet Toof's Summer Solstice show opens tomorrow night.  Anyone else heading down to check it out?  There are a few previous shots floating around various social media sites:

From Rowdy's Facebook page: "getting ready for the Bristol show next week, shouts to Crilly for the pic!"


From Arrested Motion's preview:


From Mr Jago's Instragram:

I've asked whether there is a buyer's catalogue and will let you know if I get a response. Failing that, I'll be taking a load of photos when I check out the show and I'll try and pick up a price list for you.

I've just come back from the opening night and I'd highly recommend it for any Burning Candy fans or anyone who likes an interesting show.  It's in a former oak-paneled pub and the lighting is solely from candles and lamps which wouldn't have looked out of place in a 1930's bordello.  On the plus side this gave the whole show a fantastic atmosphere and made it far more interesting than your usual white-washed and spot-lit gallery but on the minus side it means that my s**tty cameraphone photography is even s**tter than usual.  So apologies for the quality of the following photographs but I would definitely recommend seeing the show in person.

Yes, the crocodile in the foreground is a cake.  No, I didn't get to eat any.  Yes, I am sulking like a toddler at a fourth birthday party as a result.


There were loads of videos playing including Rowdy and Sweet Toof's segments from the Dots film.  There was also a honky-tonk piano player and Sweet Toof punch.


Rowdy's pieces were mostly his crocodiles and this style of cityscapes, so unfortunately there weren't any of his abstract landscapes which I love.


I thought the piece on the left was the pick of the show; a fantastic mix of conservative, religious vanitas and glittery, pink gummed fun.


sakyamuni - I never did get a copy of a buyer's catalogue, so I'll PM you a link to the photos of all the Sweet Toof pieces I got.

Shepard Fairey Cake?

and am I better off using Flight Logistics to transport a slice of Rowdy CrocCake from Bristol to London to make sure it shows up in one piece?

OK, I should say from the outset that the photos are pretty poor quality.  But for anyone know does want a gander, I've uploaded them here.  Where there's an * after the price it means I can't remember the exact price (sorry, too many ciders) and the price is just an approximation of what I remember.

If anyone wants more details about a particular piece then let me know as I'll be passing the venue fairly regularly.

Thanks for sharing that feral. Some cracking pieces there & I can hear shaunq drooling from here.

Agree. Especially like the ST pieces. Brilliant artist. 
Dont know about shaunq drooling though, will take your word for it.

I'm gonna use this excuse to get my Rowdy out....for the lads.

thank you so much for sharing these pictures, great to have a view at this show thanks to you
