Sex Dog - 2015 - JANUARY SALE

Here at Raw Art there is a saying that goes: if it aint fixed then break it.
This has nothing to do with anything, really, it just sounds good.
Ish.
The original Sex Dog painting was sold to the incredible musician and person Vinnie Peculiar, who finds the painting haunts him still.

But aha! There is another Sex Pup painting, which I recently found hidden at the bottom of a well. Scared and shaking, it is however perfect and timely. This is the Alaskan Malamute, which indeed graces the logo of this website. It is a talking point, a discussion, a lifestyle evaluation.

This painting is 24cm x 30cm, acrylics on canvas. If you would like it there is only ONE. Hurrah.


1975 David [Bowie]

This is 1975 David [Bowie]. I've been painting some 1975 Davids for the past couple of weeks - some of which have been very small - some of which have been quite detailed - and here is one of them. The hair had to take centre stage, so to speak. 
I tried that hairdo myself some years ago. but it didn't really work. I think it would look a bit shit if I tried to do it again, like some sort of Tilda Swinton effigy or... similar. (I was going to write "Worzel Gummidge" then thought, no, it wouldn't look like Worzel Gummidge.
But then I think, yes, it probably would.)
So this is David. And he is mysterious, because he hasn't really got a face. Or at least features.

There are other artbits too. Soap, bands, badges. Yeah, have a look. Go on. An artwork is for Christmas, and sometimes for life.

#livedraw England V Lithuania

Hey cool cats – it's #livedraw tonight over at the Twitter. Watch this space. England V Lithuania, Euro Championship Qualifying thingy Group E whatnot. Here is a selection of snaps as the art took shape...









It was, an, er, OK game. And it's over now... but importantly - it was livedraw. And here are the paintings. Both still available!

Watercolour 1: Green "Artificial Turf" with Oxlade-Chamberlain in lead position. Hodgson in the background. And some ads. Plus action. A4 size - watercolour on paper.



Watercolour 2: Golden Opportunity with Hodgson in foreground. Harry "Killer" Kane in background. Plus Philosophy. A4 size - watercolour on paper.




Johnny Thunders Artwork

Johnny Thunders. So Alone. Yeah, he is.

Johnny sits in a yellow corner, legs splayed, looking for all the world like he's lost everything.
And yes – rock n roll is about loss, it's about desolation - despite what they tell you. Songs are sadness and life is cruel and Johnny - victim and heartbreaker - is going to tell you all about it. You can't put your arms around a memory. Leave me alone. (She's So) Untouchable. I'm sitting in a chair looking totally fucking cool but fuck me where's the fucking party? (That's not an actual song.)
But then rock n roll changes like quicksilver, or something else very very fast. And rock n roll is now about magic and beauty, it's a Great Big Kiss. Subway Train. And feeling quite good in some especially new trousers from a ladies store and hey it's all back to mine for a punk rock disco and seventeen thousands grammes of coke n some rum. It's 1978 and the world owes you summin. (Or however they would say it in New York.)
And back to feeling like shite again.
The vocals on You Can't Put Your Arms around a memory are a dream in breathless simplicity. It's such a great song. And Ask Me No Questions.
Anyway, I'm sitting in my kitchen and it's the weather's fucking tops and I don't care so go Johnny go. Stop feeling sad. Get out there and buy some new trousers. Go and take some drugs. 
RIP Johnny T.

#livedraw England Qualifier now now now - SOLD


Just drawn the England v Switzerland #livedraw football qualifier. 2-0. To England. Them. Us.
They're going nuts for Rooney and his 50 goals. Internationally. Or something. They love him.
Nearly.
If you don't already know I often do livedraw - especially football. Maybe Eurovision. Sometimes big elections (they don't always go so well. Bit contentious. Surprising).
Anyway, do go back to the Twitter timeline and see the work in process. If you have time.
It's livedraw! Stuff to draw live. Art and sport. Football and watercolour. Art and life.
Live it. It lives you.

Obvious, but Salient, Soap Sculpture - UK Budget 2015

George Osborne is a Shitty Cunt

Soap Sculpture in reaction to the Budget 2015

George Osborne is a Shitty Cunt (again)

Detail


George Osborne is a Shitty Cunt. Discuss. Or perhaps not.

This art is for sale for those that are really pissed off.
Or if you like George Osborne but you're a bit strange and like soap sculptures calling him a shitty cunt then do so. I'm not one to judge.
More to follow. When I've finished some very cheap wine.

This Soap Sculpture is the size of a normal bar of soap and is hand carved with a Swann Morton scalpel knife.
