Didn't want to disappoint... the official Herrods seedy sweat shop just delivered some samples. http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5537/12010402605_7b4c0d5f17_o.jpg Herrods* - t-shirt (sample) by aprovocateur, on Flickr No mugs I'm afraid, apart from me, but here's one I produced to celebrate Queenies Diamond Jubilee. http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8021/7195503592_45665b28ab_o.jpg ROYAL DALSTON 'Diamond' (commemorative mug) by aprovocateur, on Flickr

Herrods is over for another year, it's door has closed for the final time. Thanks to everyone that visited the best (and probably only) art junk shop of 2013. Whether you were appalled, amused, intrigued, disinterested or amazed? always remember the Herrods motto 'Melius mihi hedum potest pingere' (bearing in mind the Herrods copywriter doesn't know the first thing about Latin). Much gratitude has to go to Dave at Junk&Gems as well, for his leap of faith, sense of humour and hard work. Here's a few photos of the final days... Neogeometrist Carl Cashman's hand painted vase sold before it was even on it's display plinth. Watch out for him in 2014, he's got a full year planned with several group shows and a solo show in the US. http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2845/11449867003_eca1793ac0_o.jpg Herrods xmas bizarre 2013 - Carl Cashman vase by aprovocateur, on Flickr Carrie Reichardt, the self-proclaimed renegade potter, was a hot seller this year. And with her exhibiting at the V&A in 2014 she's giving those Romans a good run for their mosaic money. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7399/11366061134_eb69c872e4_o.jpg Herrods xmas bizarre 2013 at Junk&Gems - Carrie Reichardt by aprovocateur, on Flickr A chocolate orange meets the 70s via palette knife and spray can, 'Herrods Beige'. http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3761/11420559174_e1337d090d_o.jpg Herrods xmas bizarre 2013 - Beige Vase and Flowers by aprovocateur, on Flickr And finally, to everyone that could be ars*d with reading this thread let alone taking the time to post, thanks. Have a great New Year and may 2014 bring you health, happiness and prosperity. AP

I can't remember Annette, but pop in, Dave who runs Junk&Gems is a great guy and I'm sure you'd get a good deal.

You and me both Loz! Here's what the Herrods legal team prepared in advance of the launch, our very own 'Public Stealth Warning'... http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh164/ianeastdulwich/HERRODS2013PUBLICSTEALTHWARNING_zpsfdf39997.jpg

Peckhamgatecrasher, apologies for not replying sooner, the Herrods* pud is in no way a reference to any heinous act of cowardly terrorism, being a pacifist I don't condone any act of violence or hatred to anyone or anything... apart from Daleks maybe. Herrods* is a place of pilgrimage during the seasonal festive binge for the discerning aerosol afficionado. Specialising in inappropriate last minute artistic gifts, primarily for yourself, but maybe someone else. http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3694/11066425576_8d00b38f7c_o.jpg Herrods NEON - FRI 13 to MON 23 | DEC 2013 by aprovocateur, on Flickr http://www.herrodsxmasbizzare.co.uk/ *not to be confused with any mini mart in Knightsbridge with a similar name (this a serious contemptorary art gallery questioning mass consumption, please buy our stuff)

Thanks Loz... I'm an artist based in East Dulwich, but the WDC (who I gave the image to free) is a global charity, I was just trying to promote the t-shirts to make them some money. I wasn't trying to sell my stuff, I just added a few of my images for context, and offered a painting by myself for free to help get a few sales. I didn't think the business section suited a charity's t-shirts, my bad.

G*d I hope this is the right place to post this, looked at all the sections and nothing seemed perfect (obviously, please move to the correct place or delete if unwanted)! Anyways... http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3794/10944051735_fb46d08480_o.jpg Unnatural Selection T's AVAILABLE NOW by aprovocateur, on Flickr We love flippers?

And I get nowt, it all goes to the WDC (Whale and Dolphin Conservation). www.whales.org/ Bargain. AP ... --- -.. ps I originally painted the nasally challenged mammals in Brixton's infamous 'House of pain(t)' last year, and did some canvas and paper (below) editions, so thought it would be good to offer the image to the WDC for them to use how they saw fit... and b*gger me they did! http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8449/8035855643_c0d0af2946_o.jpg AP12 Unnatural Selection ... --- -..
