The Acquisitions

Over the last few days I've been acquiring a bit of new art.

There are a couple of Blue David Boyce's.

Mind you, we're still kinda in negotiation about these.

But they're now at my place ... so I own them!!!

Then there's the Wayne Youle.

It's actually a collaborative effort between me, Wayne and Ra.

And there's a Henry Winkelmann on the way from one of the other David's in my life.

Oh, and there's a John Lake waiting for me too.

Nice.

you should get some mountains done on the south island to make it a bit more "ggggggreat"!

microphen said...

it was a free wayne youle. so it works out a bit cheaper than a mccahon.

as you well know i take pride in my pedantry.

as for the mountains. nice idea but it would remove it from the context in which it was made. and that context is an important reason to why i actually got it done. being a pedant and all.

no red dots for you?

microphen said...

there are red dots - four of them.

but they're kinda lost in the blood and crappy lighting. i'm hoping yo get a better shot of it soon - taken by someone other than me, in better lighting. then the true majesty will become apparent.
