Title: Villa Artwork
Post by: JJ-AV on February 16, 2020, 08:18:18 AM: Does anyone have any in their home? If so then please share!

I'm veering towards an oil painting, probably of Villa Park externally (or maybe just the Holte)

I'm sure a few of the fellow H&Vers have something in their homes.

*mods feel free to move if this is deemed more appropriate for Memories

Some I've seen online:

Post by: Benaud on February 16, 2020, 12:57:01 PM: Since we're on the subject I'll share these here. I make these 'beer can lanterns', they display as silhouette portraits when a little candle is lit inside. Think like a terrifying Halloween pumpkin but with Paul McGrath's face instead of Ian Dowie's... Here are my Villa ones.

Drop me a line if anyone is interested in getting hold of one (or more), mates' rates for anyone on H&V! Open to suggestions for new ones too. Cheers!

Post by: Holte132 on February 23, 2020, 06:20:14 PM: I have this one done by Rob Geoghegan. He does loads of prints that are usually very amusing. You've probably seen his work if you have been to Moseley craft markets, for example. The caption doesn't show on here but it reads 'We climb up all these steps to support them and then they go and perform like that.'

Found these on the net but the quality is poor. Does anyone have a high resolution photo ?

Post by: Lky on February 23, 2020, 08:33:39 PM: For some reason the AV floodlights are missing on the photo of the Holte I uploaded.
