blue monster update

bluemonster333small.jpg

Usually I'm fairly delighted when one of my prints hits above the $50 mark. Steve Clayton's signed "Blue Monster" litho is now bidding on e-Bay at £31.00 GBP [approx. $60 US] which, considering the auction still has over a week to go, isn't too shabby.

If I ever manage crack the art market, it won't be through the usual London/New York fashionista crowd... it'll be through Silicon Valley. That's my guess, anyway.

[UPDATE:] Now bidding at £52.00. Heh.

personally I think in any art crowd you would be a hit. its funny, very true at times, and very well said. Speaking or "typing" as an artist myself.

You're gonna really kick yourself when it goes for £10 Million and you have to give it all to charity. If only you'd gone for a 50/50 split - too late now though...

I've got it !
Cut it in half, suspend it in formaldehyde and put a price tag of £200k on it.
If anyone says it isn't art just turn your nose up and say "you obviously don't get it"
