Archive for November 2008
With all the vast panorama of art prints for sale on our ecommerce website at Artists UK it is surprising that one of our best sellers this Christmas so far has been MC Escher jigsaw puzzles . Why anyone would want their MC Escher picture in lots of tiny bits rather than in one piece is a bit of a puzzle in itself. It makes you wonder doesn’t it. If we tore up all the Limited Edition prints and posters into small pieces before we sent them out would they sell better? 
The last dates for 2008 are November: 13, 14, 15. 16 Crafts for Christmas, NEC. 22,23 Leeds Castle, Maidstone, Kent and 29,30 Ludlow Medieval Fayre, Ludlow Castle, Shropshire. In December there is 6,7 at Knebworth House , Stevenage, Herts. Ed Org’ is also doing a ‘one’ man show along with Paul Jackson (porcelaine, mythological figures) and Kelly Martinez (stunning art nouveau jewellery), which has confused us all here. Is that three one man shows, a three-man show or a two-man show with a one-man show? Whatever it is, it runs from Thursday 12 February to Sunday 15 March 2009. There will also be one of Ed Org’s ‘Private View’ showings on Sunday 17 February. At Obsidian Art, The Bucks Goat Centre, Old Risborough Road, Stoke Mandeville, Bucks, HP22 5XJ. So get yourself along if you can. If you have no idea who this amazing artist is or want to buy prints of his work then click here.
