They are useful. They are beautiful. They claim to be dishwasher proof but I would lovingly hand wash them instead. Sometimes they speak in tiny voices and sometimes they help with the hoovering.
Quantities are extremely limited. Each mug is packaged in safe n stylish polystyrene and dispatched via the Royal Mail.

RAW ART CHRISTMAS: WEEK TWO - PET SOUNDS

Hello. Welcome to another in the series of art blog posts about art.
Welcome to Week Two.
Today I can unveil the latest painting on canvas board. It's Pet Sounds, that album, you know. It's by the Beach Boys. It's good.
I thought that it was one of the most complicated album sleeves of all time, so I decided that it would be interesting to paint, to see if it was possible. So I had a go.

Carl, Brian, Dennis, Mike, Al - and some goats

The Beach Boys - they're a boy band. They sing harmony and sway. They're pop. They're soul.

Detail

My favourite Beach Boy is Dennis, who seems to be feeding an invisible animal on the sleeve. He's so out there. There is a good blog about the original photoshoot at San Diego Zoo here.



You can buy a piece of this Beach Boys magic - a little bit of the life force. (You would not believe the price of art materials, they are going through the roof.) Painted to order as multiples, limited to twenty.
Any questions, do ask. If you want an extra-large version, a handy 60 x 60 cm, then please do contact me as I can do 'em for Christmas.
Thanks, friends.

AVAILABLE AGAIN SOON

We interrupt this blog to announce #livedraw TONIGHT


First one, Roy Hodgson


Adrian Chiles, from World Cup 2014 #livedraw

You may remember #livedraw, it happens at Eurovision and the World Cup as a way of bringing art to your mind from the medium of National Telly then onto canvas then to the internet via the Twitter then here etc. It's a social art experiment that's a) not an experiment and b) is quite social and c) has got some art in it.

The football's on tonight, a "friendly" between England and Scotland. Oh yes. And wooh. But what is it really about? Is it about millionaires in shorts? Is it about goals? Is it about art? Or is it about Mylene Klass and her many Mansions? Who knows. Anyway, there's going to be some #livedraw tonight so get some gin, turn on the telly and watch the Twitter.
Update: for tonight I've gone posh with wine and some reduced price bread that, quite frankly, I wouldn't have bought had it not been reduced. And it's still expensive.

UPDATE - ROY HODGSON





This is Roy Hodgson. He measures 18 x 12 cm, acrylics on canvas board.
SORRY THIS HAS NOW SOLD

UPDATE - GORDON STRACHAN




Gordon measures 18 x 12 cm, acrylics on canvas board.
SORRY THIS HAS NOW SOLD


UPDATE - MATCH OVERVIEW


This measures 18 x 12 cm, acrylics on canvas board. This one has been finished after the most wine. Which makes it more precious.

RAW ART CHRISTMAS: WEEK ONE - CARDS



In what people refer to as "the past", back in the midsts of time before time actually had midsts and was called Olde Tymme or something - Raw Art was called the Outsider Christmas Art Shop. For lovers of facts I have just checked the records – and I can confirm that it was two years ago.
How. Time. Flies.
It's now nearly Christmas again - we don't want to think that but we must. It's bloody November and here we all are. Loveable, difficult, offensive – but utterly clueless. And utterly unprepared.
Bearing this in mind, the Raw Art Outsider Christmas Art shop countdown to the festive season is BACK. Back Back Back. And the thinking person's crumpet, Father Christmas, is coming down our collective chimney quite soon.
And what do we want when our chimneys are thus preparing? (?)
Cards. That's what. Raw Art Christmas cards.

Yes. It's true.
These are cheeky little cards, measuring a sensitive 10x15cm. They have the sort of Christmas messages, printed with an exclusive stamp, that only the discerning festive art fan will appreciate. Here are detailed photos:

CARD NUMBER ONE: Pissy Christmas

CARD NUMBER TWO: Crappy Pissy Christmas

CARD NUMBER THREE: Happy Pissmas

CARD NUMBER FOUR: Another Nice Boring

Packaged - cards n envelopes


These cards are strictly limited and are available until we run out - they are offered as a set of four, each with an envelope (pictured below, near Lou). Cost including postage and packing is a mere fiver. A fiver!!!! Buy them before they buy you. Or something.


Please do take some time look around the Raw Art site - artwork may be still available, ideal for top notch Wintertide gifts n that.
