Holly Thoburn, by johnnyh on Feb 2, 2012 4:04:26 GMT 1, Must say I would like to see a real one but from here and this apart from a couple of mentions and brief shots is the first I have seen of her.
Have to confess that its not doing it for me but appreciate the views exspressed by those that have seen a real one as may be its that. As I do struggle appreciateing this kind of work.
Congrats Esciff on your new piece though likewise P&L enjoy.
thanks Johnny

it's interesting how it works.
I must say, normally paying 1500 for a canvas (or in my case swapping a piece I already had) of an artist i never heard about would make me hesitate. I did some digging online and couldn't find much info save her website and the Wagamamas project.
However, once seeing it in person it was a no brainer. And i loved the piece I gave up, but this one just jumped at me...
appreciate your point of view johnny, that's what makes art so great

Just curious Johnny, is it her work you struggle with or work of an abstracted nature in general? just totally curious is all?

Holly Thoburn, by johnnyh on Feb 2, 2012 22:48:55 GMT 1, Esciff much appreciate your comments and as I say not seen one. And just glad you love it mate. Remi its abstract in general I suppose but some times I see stuff and think its mega. Hence saying to see one in the flesh Can sometimes change that. So does depend but its not agreat style for me so struggle to appreciate in general.
That's why pieces in say this thread and the comments here interest me.
Also takes me to artists I may not look at etc.

That's cool, I totally get that... To be honest I don't see my work as abstract, it's abstracted but there's still a total basis of shape and form, Holly or Marco Grassi for example are more about the texture than the form... I guess there's so many aspects to it all...
Cheers anyway, was just curious.

Holly Thoburn, by johnnyh on Feb 3, 2012 12:30:32 GMT 1, Yes see actually find yours easier to look at as it in general (need to be careful as do not know yours that well but through the threads etc...I also as you know have one) does use shapes and structure so easier for me to look at and enjoy. Similarly your wall collaborations combine both.
Holly and say Jago I find much harder to really appreciate as I do with a lot of abstract work. But as I say things in the flesh are different so my comments here are a bit unfair as based often on a one dimensional photo.
Esciff just proved my point!!!! ;D ;D
