Top 3 of 2016, by South Bound on Dec 25, 2016 1:07:20 GMT 1, It's been one crazy year, most of my art is at the framers, and some is still in route. But here is the best that I have pics of.

WHAT ART WILL YOU BE AFTER IN 2017?, by South Bound on Dec 24, 2016 19:36:31 GMT 1, I will be extending my '16 art ban well into '17, so I will be living vicariously through everyone else's purchases. I do enjoy your pics though! Hoping to travel, travel travel in the new year! my forum xmas wish for this year is for more pics of their art... especially classic images or rare finds.
I must say every time I see a framed Dface Poptart on someone's wall a smile spreads across my face.

WHAT ART WILL YOU BE AFTER IN 2017?, by South Bound on Dec 24, 2016 5:51:35 GMT 1, I will probably break this promise, but I will not be buying any art next year.
I purchased way to much this year and need to take a break... translation - will be purchasing something I have no intention of buying at the moment.

DFace โข Riot Scarf, by South Bound on Dec 18, 2016 23:30:01 GMT 1, Congratulations. Which one did you buy? This was my first Dface. Still enjoy it just as much to this day (probably a decade later!). ![](http://i444.photobucket.com/albums/qq163/coach_045/Mobile%20Uploads/ED7E77F7-BD3C-4D19-AD22-4CD75D063569_zpsxtxfhkkj.png)
To me that is the classic Dface (along with "Poptart") image. The Lichtenstein style stuff is great, but the old school images are where it's at.

The Dean Collection X Bacardรญ Present No Commission: London, by South Bound on Dec 12, 2016 16:59:33 GMT 1, Wish we could see some more pics, been a few gorgeous Failes posted on Instagram. If anyone has more please post.
I think Swiss went in with best intentions. I just think the Banksy giveaways are hilarious.
Swizz's collection is pretty tight and love his taste. But I have hard time thinking he even qualifies as a minor player as a collector, especially compared to others who I would consider to be more in line with that title.

Flattening Prints โข Creased, Folded, Rolled or Rippled , by South Bound on Nov 26, 2016 18:11:37 GMT 1, I have a print that has ripples in it. Are those going to come out eventually? depends on the cause of the ripple, the type of paper, etc.
I have a Vhils which has such a large amount of ink and bleach that I flattened it and after a few weeks the ripples came back. But I can handle the ink induced ripple.

Swoon Kickstarter with Heliotrope: 13 color silskcreen print, by South Bound on Nov 18, 2016 18:45:18 GMT 1, great image, one of her best for sure, but i usually prefer the hand-made/jute paper she used for other releases (like walkie, allison, nee nee, etc). I am not sure of the result with a more ordinary paper and white borders. Maybe more closer pictures could help... I am not 100% sure but if I remember correctly that jute paper (at least for Nee Nee) was hand made by a man who passed away right before the release of Nee Nee, so I dunno if you will see that quality of paper again.

Swoon Kickstarter with Heliotrope: 13 color silskcreen print, by South Bound on Nov 18, 2016 13:46:12 GMT 1, this print looks beautiful Surely more than 20 have sold ? that's a shame, I have a variant of this and it might be my favorite of all her work.
I guess the only reason I can think of is that most of her fans are not aware this Kickstarter exists.

Maker Unknown, no markings. Has been in the family since mid 1800s. Has survived "Bleeding Kansas", "Jessie James", and "The Dust Bowl".
Now, will it survive toddlers?

I just donโt get it at all , by South Bound on Oct 22, 2016 16:07:00 GMT 1, These are all nice but kinda vague answers. I agree with the original post, but would really love to hear concrete examples of why they love KAWS specifically - what all of this work is trying to say? There seems to be millions of followers but I just don't understand the meaning of all these dolls and x eyes. Perhaps knowing more about the meaning and what specific aspects are appealing would help us to like it more and perhaps even become fellow fans? I don't profess to know a lot about Kaws but here goes, I do know that he said said many times his name means nothing. He just liked the combination of the letters KAWS and said he thought they worked well together. He X's started as he used to paint them over bus stop ads. His work in graphic design led to the colorful images.ย I think like many artists or logos the rest is just his branding that distinguishes his art and has created an instantly recognizable character in the art world.ย Many may already know all this but I thought might be worth sharing.ย to add to the above:
His work (IMO) is in the same vain as most pop art. Taking popular culture images out of context and then changing the image or placing the image in a new space in hopes of generating an emotion or thought from the viewer they would not have gotten from the original.
While KAWS has moved on to fame and fortune he has (according to my graffiti writer friends) was a very prominent member of a big influential NYC crew and maintained his credibility amongst the writers as apparently he is still quite involved with them as well as his work alongside the Mission School crowd and his major contribution to the beautiful losers.

I just donโt get it at all , by South Bound on Oct 22, 2016 14:31:20 GMT 1, Been searching for an old thread for a while now (last posting was about 2 years ago), where people posted the artist(s) they just did not get and then forum members chimed in with their thoughts (all were very respectful) on what they get out of said artist(s) work. It was a great thread that kind of faded away.
The most written about was Sweet Toof, he brought a lot of love and question marks.

Invader Artwork, VALUATION, by South Bound on Oct 22, 2016 13:00:33 GMT 1, Have delt with them before. Nice people but have a tendancy to be about twice or more $$$ for what I have eventually paid for same print.
But space files is not an easy find. So I guess it is a roll of the dice.
