My girlfirend paints these wacky looking pictures, and I'm not too sure what to make of the style. She tends to paint them at a size of about 3ft x 3ft to 4ft x 4ft.

What do you guys think of them??






cheers

Good. Nice and individual, it will suit someones taste. More of a black and white photography man myself.
Tell her to keep up the good work, although they seem from the 'smoked-up' vision of things

Could only open the 2nd one... echoes of the scream by munchy chappy........ Seriously, if they are all that bold, I'd say she has a very individual style and will probably have some success .
Not to my taste but then, not everyone likes the same thing !

paulr

She's talented,but i dont like them.Too aggressive.

StickyMicky

bottom one looks like the crowd after newcastle get beat yet again

i know nothing about art, but as paul says, they do look agressive, i prefer the top one, no idea why?

i rekon they should put pictures like this up in the big brother house, to make the people inside do wrestling moves on each other

frisby

Micky,

2 of them are hanging in the Firestation pub in Whitley Bay, not sure if they cause people to do wrestling moves though!!!!


Stu

StickyMicky

ive only been in there once and it was about 4 years ago (i think??)

does she sell them?

if your from the north east, does that mean the bottom one is infact based on the newcastle fans

frisby

Aye, Micky, the 2nd one is based on Newcastle fans. A few shops were selling copies of them a while back.

There seems to be a lot of anger in some of the scenes.
Does she ever beat you?

frisby

lol!!!

She goes and watched the people coming out of the stadium, and tries to capture the emotion.

As for the pub scenes, well maybe you just ain't been drinking in Newcastle!!!!

paulwrxboro

I like give me a price on the first one

scoobypreza

I like them
Would love to see more... she should have a web site.

cath

I like them.

rolyatescort

I like them a lot, i think they capture the pubs and football culture really well. As for aggression i don't see it, maybe its cos i'm a northern monkey and i live in the north east now but all i see is lads and lasses enjoying a pint!

I personally would be really interested in one (but not the footie ones as i'm a liverpool fan, unless she was willing to do one with liverpool fans on it?) does she have a site? or could you give examples of prices?

Apparition

frisby, been in the firestation pub in Whitley Bay, didn't notice the paintings, have they been there long ? Mind you, it was a match day, lights were down, big screen was on ....
Looks like you've launched her career, many prospective buyers queueing up.

Scooby-Doo

I think they are good. Quite happy to pay for a couple of originals. PM me if your interested.

Love the humour and use of colours. An obvious talent.

frisby

Thanks for the interest guys. It has given my GF some confidence that people like her work.

Those people that showed an interest in the artwork, I have sent you a PM with my e-mail address.

Anyone got any other comments??

regards

Stu

StickyMicky

get her to do one of a scooby meet

richiewong

Quality, looks like the crowd watching the 'Geordie Dancer' down the Bigg Market before the game

SJ_Skyline

Not what I would choose but they are very good! I do like the 2 worried-looking barmen in the Toon Army pic!!

I don't know why but I kept thinking "Thin Beryl Cook"

Don't expect old man Lewis to like them - he's a smoggie!

King RA

I think they're very good
