#Livedraw World Cup - Day Four - SOLD
Hello there #livedraw people and art football interface fans.
Day four of football found Raw Art fairly fatigued but still with drive and promise.
France vs Honduras proved to be a thrilling match of kicked balls, kicked players, yellow cards and fellas fellas everywhere. Arguing. Big, Burly. Looming and hulkish.
Here is a painting – France's Benzema scored twice and here he is near the ball. And near Palacios who's got his kicky feet out.
SORRY THIS HAS NOW SOLD
Watch this space for Van Persie's header picture, coming later today.
About the artworks: Each is painted in acrylics on canvas board, measuring 18 x 13 cm. Prices include postage and packaging (see drop down menu for worldwide options). 30% of the gross price (ie a fiver per painting) will be donated to Macmillan Cancer. Please contact me if you would like anything specific.

#Livedraw World Cup - Day Two - SOLD OUT
Hello there, and welcome to Day Two of #livedraw #worldcup.
Today I am going to concentrate on Spain vs Netherlands, on at 8pm BST. (Mexico and Cameroon maybe if I can get a move on.)
Last night's match was certainly bloody mental and the time went quickly. 90 minutes is not that long when you have a whole load of paint splodged in front of you. Let's see what happens later....
PAINTING ONE...

One of the #livedraw paintings
Hey - it's here! A load of football on the TV. Football and art. Art and football. Fused together in one almighty showdown because raw art has decided to do ver #livedraw #WorldCup.
It's Brazil and Croatia tonight. Let's see what happens to these men and their so-called calves of pummelling steel. Let's see what happens to the ball and it's so-called roundness. Let's take in a bit of Jennifer Lopez and Pitbull and some people dressed as the rainforest at the opening ceremony.
Artwork will be posted here and on the Twitter as it happens.
PAINTING NUMBER ONE - SOLD

World Cup #livedraw News
#liiiiiiivvveeedraaaaaaaawwwwwww!!!!
(quick sketch on back of envelope)
After the massive excitement, the shabby kerfuffle and the restless-legs expectation of the last #livedraw in May '14 where, as you know, I drew each Eurovision entry in real time – comes new new new #livedraw.
An event in itself.
A merrily-charged thing.
An art thing.
A double-screen, modern-pot of classic hyper artistry mixed with...
...football.
Yes - for however long it lasts, during some [if not most] of the games, depending on will and the amount of gin left in the cupboard, I will attempt to #livedraw some paintings of the WORLD CUP TV coverage on canvas board. From the depths and dark schoboons of a rather messy flat I will be DEPICTING, in acrylic paint on canvas board, at least TWO footballers per game. You know, the ones wot are doing really well. The ones in those long socks (do they still wear them??) And maybe a flag in the background or a "ref" or something.
To whit - #livedraw goes #world cup 2014 on the Twitter and that.
PLEASE tell your friends. Real ones and virtual ones and the actual imaginary ones.
DRINK along and offer twitter encouragement if you like doing that sort of thing.
DO watch this website for PAYPAL buttons and please do buy.
30% of the price of each artwork will go to Macmillan Cancer Research. This site will be updated regularly with running totals, photos and "interesting facts".
More preliminary sketches may be revealed tomorrow. Plus photos of paintbrushes and/or bottle of Gordons.
I've even invented a catchphrase I'll never use and probably edit out of this post tomorrow:
Let's make art real. Let's make art #livedraw
Thanks.
A Collection of Davids
It's Friday. Thought I'd post some of the David artworks that have been painted in the last couple of years. They're not in order, they're not completist, they're not good at putting the kettle on but they ARE David and they DO look at you funny.
Some are still available if you have the patience and time to go through the blog posts. You can contact me direct anyway.
Happy Friday! David Forever. Etc.
(Click on the image and it should come up bigger.)
Oh and remember, exciting new #livedraw plans afoot. Watch out for more news tomorrow!
David Bowie – Diamond Dogs Artwork
Good evening you, good evening me.
The weather's been all right today so let's look up, not down, and think about David Bowie.
It's been a while (MONTHS) since I did a Bowie artwork and – inspired by the 40th anniversary of Diamond Dogs, I have painted a version this afternoon.
Young Dave, still a mere slip of a thing surviving on milk and that green pepper, poses like a dog.
I've left out the stuff at the back because it was a bit distracting – so now it's like he's floating in a blueish air.
"As they pulled you out of the oxygen tent/You asked for the latest artwork".
Or something. Any questions use the contact form.

Found Some Old Artwork....
I have just found this under the bed. I think this was conceived as a non-tribute to Sarah Lucas, a work ("work"?) made with cigarettes, called "cunts", made about 1999. This also includes cut-out words from a newspaper article, which must have been about the art world (from wot the nouns say). The words include "Joan Crawford", "sexual people", "Andrea Dworkin and dull and boring food", "Hitler", "Christy Turlington", "gay parents", "my brother", and even "my fishmonger". All of these things considered cunts or cuntish. Strange is the addition of "Alexander McQueen", who was obviously not a cunt, but must have been included in the butchered article.
This artwork is now a bit bashed up. It's been in a plastic bag for a while. The "c" looks like a "g", the cigarettes are a bit flat.
It still smells quite nice, if you seen what I mean.

It could almost be... a... Julian Schnabel???! No!!! Oh never mind.
