Beef to the max for Gagnon. Banksy & MBW. Both big hitters, nice to see Rene aint being bullied. Good mix this. Rene says on his site this image is from a painting he did in 2008. :lol:

thank you otto and optimus for setting me straight on the price.

140.00 is totally reasonable...just not doable atm.

I'll be away from the computer for the most part helping my folks with some drywall installation. Let's touch base next week and figure out a plan. So would these specimens be considered traps, or do the pants cancel that out?

no trap material in this case. i like the basic idea, but we should add something more. yeah, let's touch base next week.

Don't know whether 'art' was really what I was going for with this one. :lol: I think if I was serious about doing a real piece with this, I think I'd want to go way more pixelated, a la 8-bit, vs PS hackjob.

But since this should really be about Sir Gagnon, I really like this piece. I hope it's meant to be more of a commentary of the fact that the use of superheroes and Monroe have become somewhat of a cliché in street art, vs it being just another piece featuring superheroes and Monroe. I think both have gotten pretty old at this point. Time to move onto something fresh.
