D*FACE Peace Gun Riot print, by docean on Aug 11, 2016 18:09:15 GMT 1, I don't get it. Why cover the only cool image in the print? (the gun)
I like the original image (I have gold), can't figure this one out though.

Zedsy ๐ฌ๐ง Street Art โข New Print Release , by docean on Aug 7, 2016 0:31:41 GMT 1, Comical that people are so quick to attribute defense of this print to hyping. Is it not possible that people genuinely like it?
oh wah it's devoid of original thought. you sound like pouty children. if you don't like it, that's fine. not everyone is going to like every piece of art. There's plenty of art that people love and I hate. But some of the whining on here just sound like jealousy to me.
I don't care what the dollar value of the print is or becomes, because to me the value is that it's an interesting, thought provoking (go ahead, grab your pitchforks) piece to go in my room.
Yes, it's the same soup can image Warhol used, so what? He literally copied the image from Campbells...does that mean his work was devoid of thought too? absolutely not. by that train of thought the only creative people were the guys at Campbells
Banksy has used images before...Gericault's Raft of the Medusa for his wall in Calais is the first that comes to mind....never saw any bitching and moaning about that. Jeff Koons notoriously copies images....no complaints there.
so what price do these need to flip for before people stop complaining?

*Charity Sale* Carlos Cesar Alves Original Painting, by docean on Aug 1, 2016 0:19:21 GMT 1, Hello everyone, as some of you may know (I posted a few weeks back) I have been working on starting a charity to help alleviate poverty in South Florida.
More information on The Blank Canvas Foundation can be found here (full, real, website coming soon)
I was fortunate enough to meet the artist Carlos Cesar Alves recently and he has been very kind to donate this piece to the cause. His ink on paper pieces regularly sell for $2500+ so this was a very exciting donation. 100% of the sale proceeds from this piece will benefit the charity.
Carlos Cesar Alves is a South Florida artist originally from Brazil. His art has been featured in numerous publications worldwide and he has had numerous exhibitions, including ones during Art Basel Miami. Charity is a very important part of his life and part of his life mission includes giving back.
Find out more information on him here
The piece is titled "Smile or Grimace" and the ambiguity of the facial expression is a representation of the contrast between rich and poor. It represents hope for the less fortunate and serves as a reminder of how one's blessings can be lost unexpectedly. The piece is 22" x 30" (55.88cm x 76.2cm) and is signed both on the front and back.
Please PM me for more information or offers. I'll be happy to cover shipping worldwide.
Thanks for reading!

Artists Style plagiarism, by docean on Jul 31, 2016 15:21:05 GMT 1, I don't consider Pose and KAWS artwork to be the same in the least bit. Both have very unique styles....
Nick Smith artwork is very derivative, in fact every piece he's done is based on an iconic work. He's used Hockney, Van Gogh, Warhol, Vermeer, etc.

What was your first ever Art Purchase?, by docean on Jul 22, 2016 13:21:32 GMT 1,
My first art buy was this painting by Clifton Carleton. I was 12 years old at an estate sale with my grandmother. I was digging through paintings in the closet and found this one in the very back, all mangled. Picked it up for $2.75. Turns out it was done in the late 1800's. I still collect older work from time to time, but most of it never makes my walls which are covered in urban/contemporary work.

Tristan Eaton ๐บ๐ธ Street Art โข Toy Designer โข Hollywood LA , by docean on Jul 20, 2016 15:23:48 GMT 1, I love Eaton's work but I'm a little disappointed by this. He already did an extremely similar print called "Predator" in 2014 [that one had a fin]. I wish he would do more portrait-focused pieces like "Show Me" as I feel like they better represent his street style. "Aloha Dreamland" was killer, had a run of only 150, and it was cheaper. I jumped at the opportunity to have that one framed up on my wall but this one will be an easy pass. Aloha was just a giclee though and this new one is a giclee with 10 color screen print. Plus this is a bigger print. As far as subject matter is concerned, Pangea Seed is an organization meant to raises awareness about oceanic environmental issues, so the shark makes perfect sense and, while I do love Tristan's portrait work, not sure it would work here. all valid points, I wasn't familiar with Pangea Seed and their mission. Learned something new today

Kaws Resting Place & Passing Through Vinyl Toys , by docean on Jul 15, 2016 4:13:25 GMT 1, "so expect these to be 100% authentic" the phrasing alone should have been the first indication of a shaky transaction ahead. not to mention once he gets back on to defend himself he loses all comprehension of the English language. "hatin ass charachters" "whiney mfs" "losers" "hoebags" "mf losers" awfully defensive there huh? I'm sure you'll win a lot of trust and business by attempting to collectively bash forum members. a lot of us get on here daily because we care and want to keep up to date with news, releases, stories, etc. If anyone is a loser it's you for not being able to defend yourself like an adult and transacting business with poor communication. 1) shaky? you're clearly misinformed. i guess you never bothered to read that the buyer and i have done transactions before. 2) idgaf about my grammar so there, but feel free to correct it bc i don't care if you can't read mys**t. it's funny how you're critiquing my grammar, yet you failed to read what the buyer had to say about our previous transaction. it's so obvious you're isolating the negative comments and using those as facts without reading the rest of the story. furthermore, my comment wasn't even about you. it was directed towards the three amigos listed on my previous post, yet you felt butthurt about it? you need help bro. 3) yeah i'm going to listen to the grammar police. you must be f**kingjoking. "don't login to the site like these losers on a daily basis "
...that would imply that anyone who logs into the site on a daily basis is a loser...so yes you are bashing people collectively. it would appear as if you are the one lacking critical thinking.
I don't know anyone who commented, I am unbiased. Just calling out some stupidity as I see it.
