Hey and hello - the mugs have arrived on this blustery, tornado-style day or days.
They're shiny, they're new and they are filled with an invisible magical dust. They're ready for something, don't know what - but if you're making one I'll have a strong tea no sugar. Thanks.
The mugs always say they're dishwasher-proof but I wouldn't gamble on that as they are sensitive, art mugs and automatic machine washing techniques might go wrong.
Here at Raw Art we love our mugs but they often sell out so do order soon to avoid disappointment.
Here are the five beauties. Watch this space for new designs - if we fancy it - in a couple of weeks....
All designs are from original Raw Art paintings.
Thank you, for being there.

This is the Aladdin Sane mug.

It's a Sleaford Mods mug! Wooh! Our favourite punks now immortalised on a beverage container.


The Throbbing Gristle mug - a Raw Art classic.

David Essex "Rock On" mug - good for people who love David Essex. 

"Pup" Mug -

It's a Sex Pup mug - new for 2015! It's menacing but very good at holding hot drinks.

The underside of the mugs is printed with the Raw Art logo which is handy in itself.

Any questions, do ask.

Hello scamps.
Here, on a blustery day, we have another new artwork to reveal... the suitably blustery jangles of Brissy's finest, the Go Betweens. Liberty Belle and the Black Diamond Express album cover. They're all sitting on a sofa. Some high, some low.
When will change come? Well, I don't know. But if you look at this artwork long enough – for a really really long time – things will change I am pretty sure of that.




If you would like this artwork it is 20 x 20 cm painted in acrylics on canvas board.

"Driving my first car, my elbow's in the breeze
With all these people that I never, never need
These people are excited by their cars..."

This painting is in acrylics on canvas and measures 20x24cms. It is at a special Christmas price of £40 inc UK P&P. There is only one.

THIS HAS SOLD, THANK YOU

Aladdin Sane - Postcard Size (Sian Superman)

Deep in the suburbs of modern Britain hangs a portrait so toothsome, so vibrant, that it needs little by way of explanation. It is the second 21st Century Man painting out of the limited edition of two.
It is placed on the fine magnolia wall of a gentleman who has seen fit to accompany said artwork with a mounted CD thing which gives the painting more strength, more guts.
Together they make a fine focal point for any contemporary living space.

Thank you.

Thanks and good beans to you.

The first hangover painting, rather than sketch, is here - like a beacon of portent on a Saturday night, speaking -like a ghoulish monster of dreary headpinchyness - of the ills of the Night After. That is, Sunday - and the Sunday hangover (which will actually go if you keep drinking all day until, preferably, Tuesday). But anyway, it is Saturday at the moment here in London town and here it is, this picture. If you would like to own this totally original piece of art, wot like no one has ever done before, it will cost you £80 plus very moderate p&p. [Acrylic on canvas, 30cms x 40cms.] You can contact me here for all enquiries. I'm off down the pub.

Hello, my name is Siân Superman and I am an outsider artist. Outsider art means pictures with no formal technique, no acceptable lineage, no shop-bought aesthetic. The wonderful Stella Vine, for instance, is an Outsider artist. Banksy is not. The paintings “by” Tony Hancock in the best film of all time The Rebel are Outsider Art. The stuff of Damien Hirst is not. It is important to be an Outsider. It stops you being an asshole. (Pablo Picasso was never called an asshole.)

And thus onto the subject of today.
You may have heard the work of a gentleman called Luke Haines, the notorious songwriter, with bands such as The Auteurs, Black Box Recorder, Baader Meinhof and of course, by his own nom de non-plume, Luke Haines. He is known throughout the world as a despot, a soothsayer, a perspicacious visionary. (By the way, I am married to this man.)

And so, as if pushed into a corner by a very large baboon, I have new paintings for sale, inspired by the cover of 'Bad Vibes', Haines’ memoir. The “dark destroyer” is portrayed here in all his brooding glory, with the heavy clouds of doom in the background and a martini in his hand. He glowers with knowing nihilism as the shutter clicks, and paintbrush flicks and a new artwork is borne. Therefore, here is picture 1:


Picture 2 features our fiery fiend as a disembodied head, one filled with menace and sarcasm – a gigantic two fingers [not pictured] to the world. “Bad Vibes” is also its name and such is its game. Here it is:


The paintings are in acrylic paint, on canvas, and measure 16" by 12".

Copies will be limited up to 40. Each one will be slightly different, not intentionally, but rather sensationally. (Outsiders have no truck with things being exactly the same.)

The paintings are £100 each and that includes UK postage & packing. Anywhere else in the world, please email for a postage price. Paypal works best. Click here to email.
