Show everyone your latest Art Purchase?, by hkbgr8 on Apr 10, 2023 14:32:42 GMT 1, I love Flog. I think he has NOTHING but upside (and yes I am a modest collector - 2 pieces). I see him as a blur between Seth, Pichiavo, maybe a bit of Gris1. The dreamer aspect of it is great. I have seen versions with girls. He has had I think 2 full solo shows with a few more on the near term calendar. I think he is on the roster for Vertical's anniversary show. His pieces are selling out in minutes and still REALLY affordable. Even at 2-3x the price they would be affordable. I do not think he has to change the character. Just keep finding dreams to paint and new collectors which are plenty - from the speed of sell outs I think it will be a while before he plateaus. For the price you pay for a 36 inch by 28 inch Flog original, why not spend that amount on a 72 inch by 72 inch BFA/MFA original that will be exhibiting at Harpers/Karma/The Hole/M+B/Shrine/Grimm/Workplace/Anat Ebgi in 2024?  . After all, youโre the one who has to look at it after you purchase, so one would hope you enjoy the work!

I received mine last week.
Itโs a lot heavier than I thought itโd be, but great quality.

Had these a while but finally got them framed and up on the wall. Jeff Koons' 'Carracci Flower' and Frank Bowling's 'As If Eleven' both from Counter Editions.
Getting two pictures to sit level side by side is a pain in the ass. Did alright in the end but any top tips appreciated.

Thanks for posting King and a Duck, both look great, lovely framing as well.
As to the getting level conundrum, and not sure how they are framed on the reverse, but you could use a split baton?
Would also ensure they are flush to the wall?

It is likely that you spotted the art-historical reference with Elvis Skull at the time of your purchase.
But for the benefit of members who are less observant, the painting appears to be a parody of, or at least a nod to, Head of a Skeleton with a Burning Cigarette.
Tomas Harker (2019)
Vincent van Gogh (1886)

It's "just" a Jonas Wood poster, so I tried to get it framed on the cheap (it wasn't). Unfortunately, SF framing costs are $$$ which is why this took me so long to get around to framing, and why I have numerous other prints and things that I probably can't frame anytime soon...

Beautiful framing job, pairs perfectly with the image. Iโm in the same boat and have so many pieces to fram and canโt justify the costs rights now. Actually looked into framing courses to learn the basics to help frame some of the cheaper ones.
