Hi everyone

Need to tap into the wealth of knowledge on this forum if possible. Just purchased these paintings, and only being a ceramic artists, i have no idea.

They are by Tony Irving, 3 smaller ones are 1300 by 450, larger one is 2000 by 450. Is this artists collectable? Any other relating info would be great.

p.s Looks like a cool forum, too bad i didnt come across it while i was at uni. Thanks all

Hi anth,, well if you read his Bio he seems to be collectable anyway.

Just google his name and you'll see he is pretty well known. Represented by Eva Bruer in Sydney which is always a good indicator of an artist having good 'investment' potential.

At any rate Tony's a good painter, I hope you enjoy your new paintings.

How much did you pay? Why did you buy them if you weren't sure?

Thanks for your help. I liked them and they were basically free from a friend so thats why i got them. Plenty of empty walls at home so im sure i'll find a nice spot.

You cannot beat free and you fried must love you a lot - visit him more often and see what else he's got to cover your walls. Some people are simply lucky, aren't they? Good on you!
