new print, "Flip", by fartofthestate on Jan 22, 2008 7:57:45 GMT 1, the print is commenting on the act of buying and selling art in this digital age. 10-15 years ago you would need to physicaly get out of your house and visit galleries, or walk the streets to see what's new. Today so many of us sit at our computers and wait, and cross our fingers and wait, and F5 till our fingers hurt..... could you do a print about people jumping on the bandwagon and making prints for either money or just for the sake of it. like somone else said art should make you have some kind of emotion when you look at it or at least look nice on the wall. I suppose the irony is that no-one will pressing F5 to try and get one of these. sorry to be harsh.
I agree, its a terrible terrible terrible idea for a print, you have skill I'd live to see it used in a decent way.

Why are you putting so much pressure on him? You are implying that you'd die if he didn't use his skills in another way?
He's trying

new print, "Flip", by Jef Aerosol on Jan 22, 2008 18:20:06 GMT 1, I've just learnt that by pressing the F5 button on a computer keyboard, you could refresh the internet connection ! ! ! I have no clue about those F1 F2 F3 etc keys... Never use them ! At least I've learnt something today ! And I totally ignored that habit of print buyers pressing that F5 key ! One more crazy thing that will remain beyond me...

Only special keyboards have it though...
..oh, I would so have been negged for this

new print, "Flip", by mainartery on Jan 22, 2008 22:44:11 GMT 1, Very basic idea, print 'infact i wouldn't call it a print but a poster'. I'm afriad we'll be seeing alot more of this over the next year as a reaction to the buying frenzy over the past few years in the artist print market.
I think anyone thinks they can do a print now and sell it here, i'm on originals this year to stop this. If a print is created by an artist inspired by original work, thanks fine, but prints for prints sake is an insult.

new print, "Flip", by CHAMB on Jan 23, 2008 7:53:17 GMT 1, I've been making prints and silkscreening for years......I made everything by hand, burnt the screens in my bathroom, pulled them all by hand.....not to make money, to make art, that's what I do.........
I'm commenting on everyone that sits down and presses F5 forever to land a print only to resale it weeks or even days later. you don't have to like it. It's not commenting on global or political events, but commenting on a specific act that most everyone on this board is aware of. And I'm not mass producing a digital print or a lame a$$ giclee, I'm making each one individually by hand, staining, cutting, painting, printing...................

Ive been trying toggling with the idea of exposing screens in the bathroom but i decided i could do without a red xposure light in my bathroom.... showing in a red glow seems slightly Bates Motelish to me...
