[Archived] Rovers Canvas'

[Helmshore blue]

Morning All

My girlfriend is a keen artist/ painter and has told me to post a quick message on here asking if anyone would be interested in having a canvas painted. Obviously Rovers related pictures preferred.

I have a Tugay one at home that I am very fond off, I will post a picture of it when I return from work.

Anyone interested in one, let me know (Minimal Charge)

Thanks

Liam

Would love to see the Tugay one mate, please do post later!

[Hughesy]

Very interested mate - get some pics up and let us see them.

[Helmshore blue]

no problem, will get on to this straight after work. Not too sure how to post the pictures, if anyone could help I would appreciate.

They arnt exact copies of the picture, she tends to change them a bit on photoshop first. Mine is greyscale, with the Tugay shirt in colour.

It is based on the above image. (Not sure how to shorten link, apologies)

[Helmshore blue]

I am home from work now. If anyone would like to see the picture, could you please tell me what is the best way to post them on here.

Hi mate.

You'll need photo sharing account, e.g. Flickr.

Upload your photo to that site and you'll get a URL to use in links.

Then add a new reply to this thread and click the photo link icon on the mini toolbar. ( The one that has a tree on it).

Enter your newly created URL into the pop up box and click on the post button.

Here we go, quality may not be the best...

Thats really impressive.

Could your girlfriend do this? -

[Helmshore blue]

possibly, she would have to have a look on photoshop. Sometimes the filter she used distorts the faces too much, and you cant tell who it is, but it shouldn't be a problem.

What sort of size would you need?

[T4E]

I would have said 3/4 the size of yours?

Feel free to send me a PM with some details once she's had a look at it.

Score in the Blackburn End ?

[Hughesy]

You got any more she has done lr?

[Tim Southampton Rover]

What kinda price are we talking about?

[Helmshore blue]

The one I have had done is about 40cm x 50cm. That was the first she has done, so no more to show sorry. She is currently working on another for myself, a fairly large liam gallagher one.

Prices would depend on size and time it takes to complete.

The Noel Gallagher picture isn't finished yet, though I would post an update, see what you think of it...

Thats Liam

Looks good so far though.

Unfortunately, after a ridiculous post by an inconsiderate person on rovers-mad, my girlfrield has decided she wouldn't want to sell her work anymore.

If you are really interested, you can email me on [email protected] with some picture ideas, and I will let you know if she changes her mind.

Cheers

What did they say?

[Helmshore blue]

What did they say?

Just saying that the painting could have been done by a child etc. They are entitled to an opinion, but it was one that wasn't asked for!

[Hughesy]

Touchy girlfriend you have their - if she's an artist then she best get used to critiscm unfortunately.

Not really an artist, she is a student with a long summer. I just thought people may be interested, as it is something that you cant really get anywhere else. There was no need for the comment on rovers-mad.

I am sorry to say that it should be expected, there are always critics and most of them are happy to voice the opinion, loudly. Posting anything in the public domain is always risky as you are opening yourself up to criticism. Look at the stick that Hughsey gets, if he was your girl friend he may have leaped off of something high, same goes for the unfortunate Chaddy.

Dont take it to heart, for every negative comment there may be three positive, and it will always be that way.

[Helmshore blue]

I totally agree, everyone is entitled to their opinion, but an opinion wasn't asked for. The original post provided a link to the Tugay picture, and asked for anyone interested in the picture to let me know. I never asked for opinions about the picture, so people could keep them to themselves if they wanted.

If you read the post you would see that it was quite inappropriate.

[Tim Southampton Rover]

Just don't show/tell your girlfriend about the stupid comments.

Good pictures.

Have you got any updated pictures since you last posted them?

[Helmshore blue]

Yes tim I have. Just send me an email on the adress I posted earlier and I will send it to you
