I like that one, who is the artist?

Most of mine is in storage due to builders being in. Most of it is paintings by local people but I am particularly fond of a couple Yvonne Coombers and a Dave White.

Well, as a couple of you asked for pictures, here are some photos of my artwork. They are an idea I thought up, no doubt someone will be along to tell me otherwise... They are each 600x400mm and spaced 20mm from the wall with welded on spacers togeve a slight shadow.

They are cut from 3mm steel, welded and powder coated.

I like them, and a lot of people that come round comment, although most don't know who they are.






My favourite however, is a canvas of a black and white moody cerb (not mine) in my bathroom above the bath. Love that one.

Eid Mubarack!

it's by a great chap called Vaz. he is from east London and realy a top chap

he had a canvas sold through Sotheby's Doha about a year ago for 5 grand so he's going onwards and upwards.

if you want anything by Vaz I'll put you in touch, he really is an amazing guy

I have this just over 2m on Perspex Mount

[Jasandjules]

No.

Have a few photos that I took such as sunset in Tobago and a Whale Shark I swam with - they've been blown up and framed.

Nothing famous, but quite a lot of my own photography, Sennan Cove, Lizard, Cornwall...

One of my girlfriend's uncle's original paintings. His work is quite amazing! This is my girlfriend when she was young (sorry, best photo I have)

Hopefully this link works (probably won't!) but here are some more of my girlfriend's uncles paintings that he has stashed away in a cupboard! He's Indian, hence the theme

Some great work on here folks! Here's a few I have, some by me I'm due to move in to my new house in a few weeks so will be getting these framed and hung. Also got loads more but only have these pics on my phone!

This is by my best mate Karl Fitzpatrick who does it in his spare time, loads of talent and when he goes full time his name will deffo be about. Noel Gallagher print made up of 10,048 letters spelling N.O.E.L which i've put a close up of too.





This is also by Karl and is the original. It's called 10,000 kisses and is made up of you guessed it 10,000 kisses.



This is a piece i've done, a skate deck which has a copy of Transworld Skate from 1983 torn up and mache'd on.



This is another i've done, my two golf heroes Seve & Ben Hogan. Both images have been posterised and printed.



Another one of Karls, this was drawn on to a vintage Playboy mag from 1969 and has the full magazine within the frame.



This one is from Luke Dixon. Like his work.



This is by Derek Hess, I love his work and hope to buy some originals at some point.



Finally another of Karls drawn on a cotton rag.




When I get in my house i'll be doing loads more work of my own, got loads of ideas and cna't wait to get going!!

What a great thread! I had never realised how much I miss having art like this on my walls!

I've got a print by Laurence Coulson. I can't afford an original of his yet but I will have one in the future.

nice, I do like his work, I have one print and one original of his.

I'm becoming a fan of Alex Echo, love the way he paints and the effect he gets;



Also like some of Nick Potter's work - especially this series;



Otherwise we have a few by Neil Dawson, plus a lot of paintings bought on holiday - i.e. those guys who sit on the seafront/lakeside and paint all day.

In fact I think I like all the pictures posted on here!

I would like to slowly build up a canvas collection of photographs I have taken over the years and then have "themed" rooms. (American, British, F1, Le Mans, Naked Women etc)
Can anyone recommend a good online canvas printer please?

[AndyT77]

The first 3 albums i bought, mounted on my dining area wall. Actually i bought them as cassettes, but they would look a bit too small on the wall!

That black and white Senna picture is fantastic! Where did you find that from?

Is getting your own photography printed and framed expensive? Last time I went to a framer shop, they wanted £30 to mount and frame! I've got a few photos I want printed and framed for my hallway and bedrooms.

Here's one of the more traditional bits

[Craikeybaby]

I've only got my own photography, I've got access to a large format printer which makes it quite cheap, so I change them occasionally, these are two of my favourites at the moment:

Canal Roundabout by Lewis Craik, on Flickr

(A friend of mine also has this on his wall)
