The mancityfans.net football forum

Lad I’ve know since school, a good mate of mine and a lifelong City fan, is a bit of a talented artist, and I insisted to him that I’d post a link to one of his pics on the site. He pisses me off actually - I was good at art til I met him, and then realised I was a bit shit!

Dunno if this belongs in the Off Topic, but it is City related, and certain artists/writers do come on here giving us the benefit of their creativity regarding all things City (the venerable Gary James, I’m referring to you sir!), so I thought I’d bang it on here.

Check it out – it’s a certain Mr Mario Balotelli, and whether you know owt about art, or just love Balo, you’d be utterly mental not to find it exquisite!

I know I might sound like an advert, and you might think what’s in it for me, but I just wanted to share it on his behalf. And.... I guess it would make a great present. And er, it’s limited edition, numbered, and signed by the artist. Did I mention he’s a local lad? Ahem....
We were talking about who he should do next the other day actually, he was keen to ‘do’ Zabaleta, but I thought Kun would be the man of the moment. What you folks reckon?
Anyway, click on the bloody link, it’s fantastic!

It's good that

Yeah I reckon Aguero should be the next subject. All feedback is appreciated.

Most of Utd's reserve/youth team players actually have heads & necks like that nowardays.

Excellent picture, will try and save that link. If he does one if kompany I might get one for my mum, she would love that.

Yea if he can do Kompany celebrating that goal against the filth that'd be a good one to have or joe going nuts when Sergio scored

I think I will have one of those. My summerhouse is becoming a shirne to all things CITY and this would be a good addition - looks quality

Good stuff. As an artist myself I tend to actually finish the piece before selling it. £40 for a limited eddition print is great value mind ... but it should looked finished or at least the size of the paper first. His graphic and illustration work is excellent thou! Art is all about opinions thou ... I personally see no skill or art in an unmade bed for example

You've not seen my unmade bed, it's a fucking work of art, I'm telling you.

Ha ha, pop up picture of it then and I'll have a word with Ms Emin's manager for you .... 10% cut ok?

It's not finished yet.

I'll see if I can find one I unmade earlier.
