Wow, and what a load of, erm, nothing it's been. A game with no goal till extra time. Men tripping each other over. People looking on. Faces painted. Nowhere else to go. Adrian Chiles.
But lo! The last night and Raw Art did some painting. Where are Jennifer Lopez and Pitbull when you need them?

Hello and good evening. Welcome to Raw Art Towers, which aint that high and not that towery - to give you an update on all things #livedraw.
Before the final two matches this weekend, I am offering you - yes you [and maybe you] and someone else - the chance to bag one two three or four paintings which commemorate the World Cup. These masterpieces of space and time get more poignant as the games proceed. Those young pups whom aspired to so much have often been left with so little. Some of the other pups have been stretchered away, or cried. Others have triumphed. The paintings gain weight - big heavy stuffs - as time goes forward.
What am I trying to say?

BUY A BLOODY PAINTING. It's a souvenir. THIS IS HISTORY.

So far you and Raw Art have raised £85 for Macmillan Cancer Support. That's good - but it's not that good etc etc. I'm trying to scale the giddy heights here, I'm trying to paint so good and so of the moment ie quite fast because I want us – yes us – to try and get over £100 for Macmillan.
We can do it. We're sports fans. Or arts fans. Or Both. [Or neither.]
Join me in this giddy parade. I am doing my damndest. We've got a big weekend ahead of us. There'll be more paintings, yes, but not that many as my fingers can't go that quickly.

If you aren't familiar with #livedraw it's this: I paint a picture on canvas board as the game happens or just before, while watching it on the telly. Subject matter is the game, the presenters or the sports persons. I put it up on Twitter, then I put it on this website and for every painting £5 goes to Macmillan. Any more questions please ask.
I think I'd better hush now.

PAINTING ONE - Thiago Silva


You know what happens next - the painting is 13 x 18 cm acrylics on canvas board. It costs £20 inc P&P (UK) and £5 goes to Macmillan Cancer Support.

Oh dear. Oh dear dear dear.

It all started quite badly when Twitter stopped me trying to write L I V E D R A W tonight, mid-way through.
The tweets were spelling "evil" because the "draw" bit wasn't being tweeted (a Twitter policy thing, no doubt). It wasn't good. People noticed. Problems. It was #evildraw. It was wrong.
Then the match.
Tonight was Germany v Brazil. Everyone thought Brazil would win. By everyone, I mean a lot of people. But then without little Neymar, it became obvious. Brazil were not going to win – no way.

Germany – goal after goal after goal. Five goals in a minute – I mean fifteen minutes, or near enough. Brazil couldn't hack it. Oh lord. It was bad. Very bad.

So I painted some #livedraw #evildraw pictures.

PAINTING ONE - Germany - SOLD

Hello there. Welcome to another evening of #livedraw World Cup.
The Germany v France game was standard enough, a football, some men in shorts kicked it about, someone scored (for Germany). They all went off afterwards. Hm.

But the Brazil v Colombia game is more like it. The men are more excited. They are trying to kick the ball into the goal more. There is a palpable - yes - thrill to the thing and the crowd are – some of them – painted green like the Incredible Hulk 'cos of one of the Brazil team blah blah blah.

So! I have painted top first-scorer Thiago Silva. He's a cheeky captain laddie, seen here with circular halo; thinking about the circular ball. The temperatures are up. It's red and rising.
It's currently half time so who knows what may happen next?

PAINTING ONE - Thiago Silva

You know what happens next - the painting is 13 x 18 cm acrylics on canvas board. It's yours inc P&P (UK) for £20 and £5 goes to Macmillan Cancer Support. So far we have raised £75 so that's AMAZING and well done everyone have another glass of wine or gin or sambuca. Any questions, do ask.

PAINTING TWO - David Luiz' Legs

He is known for his hair, by some. But David Luiz has long legs and for Brazil he uses them to score goals. Goals and more goals. (And a bit of running.) When the others aren't scoring that is. Here is a Raw Art painting dedicated to his legs and that mighty goal in the second half of the game.


This painting is 13 x 18 cm acrylics on canvas board. It will be varnished before shipping, as will every #livedraw painting. It costs a very very very paltry £20 (inc UK P&P) and £5 from each painting goes to Macmillan Cancer Support.


Many paintings now sold out but new ones are added all the time and there are some stragglers so please look at the blog posts. If you have that sort of schedule. You may not have time. Fair enough. Thanks. OK.

It's Hoddle. Painted during Mexico V Netherlands. Or Holland. Whatever it is.
Glenn's face is full of right angles. It's one big right angle, oh - actually, it's a square. Hoddle believes some bad stuff about reincarnation but let's not go into that. He has thinner legs than Adrian Chiles. He takes his football seriously.



This painting follows the form - 13 x 18 cm, acrylics on canvas board. Fiver from each painting goes to Macmillan Cancer Support. It's part of the #livedraw World Cup series so is a perfect memento of stuff.

Any questions just ask. Jesus loves you.

THIS HAS NOW SOLD

PAINTING TWO - HOLLAND - SOLD

Holland won versus Mexico. They were dressed in orange in the blistering heat. They only really woke up at the end and then they trounced poor Mexico. Poor poor  Mexico. But here is A Footballing Man Signifying Holland as a World Cup souvenir that will now be varnished and will last you for years to come. Oh yes.

This painting measure 13 x 18 cm, acrylics on canvas board. £5 from each painting goes to Macmillan Cancer Support.

THIS HAS NOW SOLD 

PAINTING THREE - "The man with the whistle"– Miguel Herrera's Mexico Statement post-match

Here it is, the full statement painted white on Mexico green.


It's a really good speech. And I've seen that Robben re-play dive thing. Hm.

This painting measure 20 x 20 cm, acrylics on canvas board. £5 from each painting goes to Macmillan Cancer Support. If you would like to buy it see the Paypal button below.

It has been a rocky road tonight - the England v Costa game was rubbish. On the other channel there was more. Biting, they say. Real biting. Uruguary v Italy. Werugh.
So Raw Art, yes it it us, has done a super super #livedraw in 60 minutes and created a picture of Luis Suarez of Uruguay biting Chiellini on the shoulder. A moral tale. Biting is not on. People do not bite other people on shoulders. Not Often. And more than they should do.

This painting follows the form - 18 x 13 cm on canvas board, in acrylics. £5 of total price goes to Macmillan Cancer Support. Any questions please ask. Dropdown menu etc. Keep it real. Keep it kind. Keep it non-bitey.

THIS HAS NOW SOLD

Hello, you chameleons of rock n roll. It's #livedraw tonight - again! - but this time it is for real. 4 Real. Quatre Vrai. Maybe.
Yes, England, the World Cup losers, are having to play those nifty little blighters of Costa Rica. English Leg against Costa Rican Leg. One neon football boot against the another neon football boot. A haircut near a haircut. But this is war. England have got to do well otherwise Roy "Hodgy" Hodgson is going to look a bit crap. Will they? Probably not.
Anyway, I aint no pundit, but I am painting it all so I will shut up and talk about PAINT instead. I have just bought a LOT of white paint. It's not fancy, but it can mix with some posh acrylic mediums and go a bit gloopy. If you want an all-white painting or one that is mostly white - just let me know. (Whether this will have any relevance to the game I am not sure.)



Next, I have a truck load of canvas board. Masses. I have more than ten, actually. It really is that good. I can just go on painting all week. Thierry Henry's jumper (cardigan seems to have vanished); Adrian Chiles' nose, Glen Hoddle's ears - even a bit of the match and a "tackle" or simple "kick" and – as Lenny Cohen says – I'm your man. You know who to ask.

 If you would like to buy this marvellous token, this souvenir of World Cup non-glory, then it's 13 x 18 cms canvas board, painted in acrylics.
