Guy Denning Original FS, by nmbr6 on Jun 18, 2009 6:00:05 GMT 1, Well I'm sadly selling my Guy Denning Original. I'm in the process of buying a house and just need the extra money.
Let me know what you think.
cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120436461661
This is a quote from Guy Denning:
"It's a portrait of my agent Le Tunnadine and her husband. He's originally from America, and I think that as with many (not all) American's that come into this country they have an idea that it's some sort of paragon of free speech and personal autonomy. There's a reference to the surveillance culture that the UK is now under (the text about Orwell) and also a little message to Le's husband himself - 'have you got Britain fatigue yet? The sun is black, the painting (which is my way of expressing myself) has been torn but stitched back together - my way of expressing the way I felt about Britain. I can't remember all the other bits and pieces that informed the work but it is one of my favourite pieces. You've bought one of the few pieces that we lived with in our house, on our wall. Much of my work gets replaced with newer work as I live with it to see what needs changing - this painting took a long time to make but I found it a personally rewarding painting. I hope you enjoy it - and thanks"
This is a huge painting and will be expensive to ship. It was shipped to me in a wooden crate through freight delivery. I will ship in the exact same container. Keep this in mind when bidding as shipping will add a bit. I will only charge what it actually costs to ship.
Serious inquiries only and please ask any questions.

I think the bright colours are much better as the dark colours from most of Dennings painting. But the price is really too much. There is a painting at Hipart Gallery which has nearly the same size for 5000.

Guy Denning Original FS, by redfred on Jun 18, 2009 13:39:14 GMT 1, Generally speaking 120 x 120 canvases go for about 5k and 90 x 90 go for about 4k, I appreciate the subject matter does have a bearing on price and its not purely ยฃ's per sq. cm. but also the amount of work thats gone into it but this seems to be a pretty fair yardstick.

Guy Denning Original FS, by nmbr6 on Jun 18, 2009 19:58:04 GMT 1, Sorry the ebay link was a future start date from when I posted to offset the USA VS London time a little.
This is part of what I sent to Monty via pm:
"I'm getting a little feedback that the price is a little high but I truly want to see what I can get for it. It's unique compared to most of his work and his quote about the piece alone shows you the amount of work and meaning this has to him as an artist. If you have a price feel free to give me an offer. Worst case scenario is that I tell you no. No feelings hurt. If no one bids on ebay and I have a satisfying offer I may just take it."
As most people with an original state, pictures or words do not give a painting like this justice.

In that case put it on for 99p and see where it truly goes.

Thanks for the feedback everyone.
