Thanks gents, think there are things I'd prefer for £380, might have been tempted for £250.

... a rabbit? ...

... or a white dove? ...

... or the Jack of Hearts? ...

... I would be interested to know as well

I didn't see what Turk had to offer. It was super busy and pretty cramped to be honest.

I think you'll find Turk didn't turn up and Sir Peters print was one of Margates Shell Grotto from when he was a boy and is an important print as its one of a new series that he's doing all sold out.

I'm curious at the current interest in Tracey Emin posters. I get the buzz around the iPad prints sold in previous years but these are just offset posters. In the past Emin has had this type of thing on her website and there hasn't been a murmur on here about them. That said I did like her print sold at the London event but £750 was steep.

As a collector of Emin's work, I don't get the interest in the posters either other than they are a good entry point to start an Emin collection. The 'Further Back to You'is not a new print and I bought one a few months back (at a lower price). I think they are shifting stock and as far as I know, can still be bought (unless sold out yesterday) at around half the the Bay price.

rather fond of Charming Baker's kitty cat. It can now chase the rook/crow. Available on gallery website as previously stated albeit it at higher price

Is anyone going to this year's Art Car Boot Fair?

I can't seem to find out much about this year and what artists will be there?

The London one is on the Sunday 12th June and then I think there is another one in July in Hastings.

"The Art Car Boot Fair returns to Brick Lane on June 12th and it's all hands on deck to bring you our most incredible line-up of artists, art and frivolity yet.

Last year we went to the dogs for inspiration with a celebration of our four-legged friends.

This year we’re making it all about the hand. Slap!

As well as bootfuls of art, hand-made, drawn, painted, thrown, tooled and printed, there'll be astonishing glove -puppet performances, palm readings, sleights of hand, artisanship and thrilling things to do with your own hands!

Originals, limited editions and maybe even a few second-hand objets... who knows?

A bird in the hand is worth two in the boot at this year's super exciting Art Car Boot Fair!

Our stellar line-up and exciting second venue announcement will be on March 23rd."

I'm planning to go fingers crossed. Looking forward to seeing who is there.

I may even be on a stall this year (not mine - just a helper )

Goldfish are all the rage this year so we'll see

Wonder if we'll get something dazzle / Bentley from Peter this year or it will be cat-dog level work - I actually thought the wrestler was a very good one from last year but wasn't released directly by Peter

Definitely  interested to see why Gavin does this year as I have the canvases from the last 2 so am intrigued to see where he takes it this time

Just turn up and Q

... there you go ...
