The concrete finish styling is “repaired and distressed”. Classic Industrial. I would consider them a close relative to Urban Pop and Bookclubs and they will feature similar subject matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe concrete styled pieces weigh a little more than a standard canvas and all up, weigh only 10 to 13kg. But the look on wall, is basically a 45mm thick \"Slab\". It is permanent and will withstand anything a normal canvas can, within reason. It took 2 years to develop this process and it achieves the ultimate in Industrial\/street styling. The recycled pieces can be a bit heavier....they are the real deal often created from Hardwood or car components etc....they can be wall hung or floor displayed. Nothing cooler in a modern lux pad, Man cave or She shed, than some industrial inspired art. They are grungy and raw. They cannot ever be mistaken for a flat print and have LIFE x 1000!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTools of creative choice are “hand and can”, using acrylics, inks and sugar sprays and often incorporate multi piece detailed stencil work. A lot of process and thought goes into each and every piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe concrete based pieces are created on a 40mm frame wrapped in linen, with a gloss coat and gallery finished edges. I take my depth of canvas to a different level believing a canvas has 5 sides and should be painted and finished as such.  Did I mention I love commissions? So, if you would like a similar piece to this one, different sizes, colours formats etc, just hit me up! I’d love to hear what you have in mind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMumma Bear and spunky wife Wendy is CFO and big cheese. To add to the family vibe, since the world was rocked by covid, both of my offspring (Franksy and Franketta as I call them) have become fulltime understudies, having “helped out Dad” during their school years. Under my watchful eye, they are both now collaborating with me at the highest level.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOther stuff at a glance:\u003cbr\u003e# One of Australia's Top Selling Artists.\u003cbr\u003e# Fulltime practicing artist since 2009.\u003cbr\u003e# Over 6000 pieces sold.\u003cbr\u003e# Pieces held in collections in over 35 countries.\u003cbr\u003e# About a 50\/50 mix of Commissions and Stock.\u003cbr\u003e# Published in all forms of Media.\u003cbr\u003e# Gallery Exhibited and partnered.\u003cbr\u003e# Collaborates with many talented designers.\u003cbr\u003e# Works used on TV shows such as The Block and Selling Houses Australia.\u003cbr\u003e# I don’t use artshop frames.

It is recommended that the really really big ones, some of the heavier pieces and some of the specialist pieces, such as pallets, be installed by a professional hanger. This is cheaper than you may think and would be in the $150 to $250 range. We have partners in most areas that can be recommended if you need help. If you would like more information, just ask away.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eServing Suggestions:\u003cbr\u003eProvided with listings are some insitu images. We strive to ensure they are accurate in scale. Sometimes we will add an external frame to the painting insitu, to provide a vibe for how that would look also. As mentioned above, my pieces arrive ready to install with gallery finished edges and honestly, most people don’t add external framing. However, it is of course an option.

We are here to help and want to make it as easy as possible for you if your décor aspirations require it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFreight and delivery:\u003cbr\u003eGlobal shipping is included in the listed prices however, if you happened to be in an extremely remote area or country, we may put our hand up and ask for a little bit of monetary assistance.
