Steve's wild inner child... and his mates... ;D I ve been a fan of these guys not just for their cheap as chips approach but also cos they are obviously have fun, even with some of the darker stuff... These days theyre more serious and are doing more expensive works as well as the cheapies of course. My avatar is one of their images - youme - and one of my all time faves, it just reminds be of being a kid. Ive got early stuff right thru to the present day and was lucky enough to come 2nd in their xmas comp and won 2 APs of the new woodcuts theyre doing. find them on the Aquarium's site... www.theaquariumonline.co.uk/

cough, cough I emailed to ask if the prints were signed. Here is the reply... "They will be stamped with a 'signature' stamp. The artists are concerned that the complexity of their signature may distract from the artwork. However they are willing to hand sign them on the back at the request of particularly persuasive customers". Pretty cool and great reason for not putting on the front, unless you happen to have an AP or 2 of theirs!! Most of the framed AP's gone, but at 12 quid each for the others, bargain Jon, Visa pass on their gratitude ;D

PMSL...
Steve is a good laugh. Quick response too... cool. The sig is a bloke led on the ground being struck by lightning and is also known as 'love from god'... To be honest I think they found that writing on that beautiful paper with a pencil wasnt as easy as it looked... hence stamping is easier and better.
Im with you mate... I bought the bloody boxed set... I couldnt resist with it own wood block and print from said block. Im a sucker for cool stuff.... Somim blaming you, I didnt know these were out until this arvo and now im £131 the lighter...
