Somehow I knew that Jagger want into sunday painting and anyway he's far to egotistical to let loose that old tat. The tabloids would be falling about with laughter. Brian Sewell?? Apoplectic..or should I say even more apoplectic. Mels very quiet for an Art Critic. Maybe its to add to the mystique. I find thee style very wooden... |

Learn a lesson there, Mel.
Always entitle your paintings so that the people/philistines know exactly the image you want to evoke otherwise no-one will have the foggiest idea.
Err..nope, its apparently a Carnival scene. Notting Hill presumably...where are the dark faces, policemen dancing, pickpockets..err..steel bands.

I bet he quotes Renoir or Cezanne ...does he? I can see cack-handed chimera homages to "Boating PArty" etc Eric Claptout? Your on the right lines - same heydays...a bit too hey! |

Whilst Kips licking his wounds heres another more accessible sketch from the back catalogue.  I've studied it carefully and deduced that it is entitled 'A Child'. |

Has the artist been mentioned before on the thread?
If so, it's one of them!
Erm.....Ray Davies?

There are similarities with Ray Davies.
The songwriting is typically english, ironic and whimsical.

Hello and welcome to Art Junk R Us...a daily study of art with a capital F. Here's another piece I'd be loathe to hang on the living room wall. Its a pity he didnt just stick to sketches rather than go all Abstract on us..lets be honest and cut the philistine accusations..the drawings look pleasant - this stuff looks bloomin' awful.  Whats good about this bloke is that he's prolific which mean the agony can be prolonged to such an extent that Kipper will be smelling out the forum before long. The only problem is Wivens - don't spoil it, mate  |

Close but no cigar. I think its time for another clue. I'm no au fait with the art world and neither is anyone else by the looks of it but his stuff recently sold at around £10,000 a painting which isn't bad for some old tat knocked off over a weekend.  As I say, the guys work is quite prolific and as with Van Vliet he seems to have swapped a music career for painting...err..the back garden. I'd suggest that he was kicked out of the house and told to do some bloody work and paint the shed and so he did. Daz, Madrigal Art Critic. |

MMMm well, this could be said to be vair nice ... because the colours are sweet ... but i'm all out of deep regard for pastel daubing. We've all OD'd on impressionaism, fauvism , JohnPiper and the ilk, imho. Thee Artists of this one is a little unfocussed ... the stairs and where they go are disjointed to the shed and the tree ... not really cohesive at the level of what this sort of painting usually exhibits. There's a signature, but I can't read it.... Raymond Bengally ?.... who's that when he's at home !! ;D
unfocussed ....erm... Ritchie Havens

The signature could be that of Syd (ROGER) Barrett, but…he’s /dead/.....
That fact (and his art background) would explain the high price for the painting, but surely, Daz wouldn’t have deliberately misled us with his clues...?
///Whats good about this bloke is that he's prolific…///
.....which ‘kind of’ implies he is still alive.
