'Creek Life' has just sold after only a couple of hours of being online - so I will be taking it off the website.

Sorry but I sold the edition of Leunig's 'My People' a few months ago. Keep an eye on the 'Leunig' page in the stockroom because I will post an image of it there if another edition becomes available.

Many years ago I purchased a John Olsen etching entitled "Animal Pondering". I have looked at many sites, but cannot find any reference to this particular drawing, and am wondering if there is any reference material I could access to find out about this particular drawing. Thank you.

Hello Laurie

Hello 'John Olsen Fan'
Thank you for your enquiry!
The John Olsen print 'Frog Climbing' has a RRP of $3500 unframed. Depending on the frame you selected you would be looking at around $200-$300 for the frame if you used our framers. If you e-mail me I can send you back some images of John Olsen's prints that we have had framed up.
Best,
Justin
Hello Laurie
The John Olsen print 'Animal Pondering' was published in 1994. I have an edition of 'John Olsen: Teeming with life - his complete graphics' which has this work illustrated on page 144.
Kind regards,

Many years ago I purchased "Summer at Owl's Wood" , collection of etchings, I think from memory about 9, image sizes vary. I have number 27 of 30. Would you have any idea what they are worth?
Many thanks

New Leunig Paintings |
17 Apr 2009 6 comments |
Michael Leunig has begun a series of new paintings. I have begun adding images of these works to the website. These are highly textured pieces with a stunning use of colour. Please feel free to contact Artloft if you are interested in finding out more about these beautiful works.
Posted in: Collecting Art
Huge fan of Leunig, would love to hear more about his new series of paintings, and exhibitions. Thankyou.
Hi Gary
Thanks for your message. I have added three new Leunig paintings to the website today.
Cheers,
Justin
I have sold one of the new Leunig paintings - Life Force' - since the above comment was posted. Michael has since then sent me two new works and I have added images of these to the website. These works have an amazing textual quality to the paintwork. This is hard to see in the photographs but I am going to take some new images once they are framed up. If anyone is interested in seeing photographs of the works in their frames they can e-mail me - please see the contact page.
I have an Etching by Michael Leunig called "Angel" which I have been fond of and owned wince 1995. I no longer hang it and would like it to go somewhere where it can bring new joy.
Was wondering if you could help - How do I sell it? How do I know what its worth?
Hi David C
I know the etching - it is a beautiful work. Can you please e-mail me - justin@artloft.com.au
Cheers,
Justin
hi i am also interested in the "angel" leunig etching!

Just a quick note to say that I have just added two new Garry Shead works into stock: 'The Supper' and Checkmate'. They are collagraphs from the 'D.H. Lawrence series' which in my opinon is the most iconic set of Shead's work.

Iconic |
11 Feb 2009 1 comments |
I often discuss with clients what imagery is seen as being 'iconic' in regards to a particular artists work. I thought a list may prove useful and so I have started one on the blog - please feel free to add your own suggestions!
Sidney Nolan - Ned Kelly series.
John Olsen - Frog imagery
Tim Storrier - Blaze Line [burning rope] and coals [evening works seem to be particularly popular]
Euan Macleod - Walking male figures in a landscape
Charles Blackman - Alice series
Arthur Boyd - 'Pulpit Rock' and 'Bride' series
Tim Maguire - Flower and Berries imagery
Garry Shead - D.H. Lawerence series
Posted in: Collecting Art
In Michael Leunig's work, these things spring to mind : curly swirls, ducks, wry whimsy, compassion and empathy, bone dry incisive commentary.

Nolan's New to Stock |
9 Dec 2008 4 comments |
Just a quick note to point out that we have 4 Sidney Nolan screenprints coming into stock. They are from the Kelly 2 series published by Marlborough Graphics in London in the 1970's. The titles are: 'Mansfield', 'The Burning Tree', 'First Class Marksman' and 'The Watchtower'. 'Mansfield' is one of my favourite works by Nolan and the addition of Kelly and his horse into the screenprint is a mastersroke. Images can be viewed on the Sidney Nolan page in the stockroom.

Hi, I have first class marksman as a paper print signed by S Nolan, can you indicate what might be its retail value?thanks clark.
Hi Clark
If the work is from the Marlborough Graphics 'Kelly 2' set and is signed, numbered and in good condition then I would expect it to retail around the $4000 to $5500 mark. Please note that this is not an official valuation.
Cheers,
Justin
