If money were no object my home would look like the PRISM galleries first show featuring Barry Mcgee & Phil Frost... In addition... I'd love a tattoo but it'd be unwise as I spend so much time in Japan and it would restrict some of my time/movements there.  |

I would love a Di-Faced tenner, but when I contacted POW they just confirmed what I already knew - that they don't sell them - and I wouldn't want to get one from eBay etc. because deep-down I've never really know if it was one of the many fakes out there.  |

Pulled from the other place. Still my dream piece. I get bored and imagine someday I will be able to make that trip across the pond, spend a week traveling looking at different locations and finishing up seeing @andy and chat while picking it up in person. Real Make-A-Wish stuff lol. Of course I would probably just get drunk at the Airport, even more drunk on the plane, take a bunch of blurry photos while exiting a pub, throw-up outside Andy's Gallery and realize I have to ship the piece home anyway.  |

I would love a Van Gogh sketch, i love draughtmanship especially pen & ink, charchoal, pencil, unfortunately something we see very little of in this market, Van Gogh is my favourite artist, unfortunately hes not around for the print release era!
A close second would be Bumfire

Salvador Dali sketch. Preferably one with a soft clock but I'd be happy with a lot of his stuff.

The Dali foundation have a hand finished print of the Persistance of Memory, its pretty cool, theres an extra clock painted on the sea going out to the horizon, you'll have to do without your meat for a few sundays though, from memory its about 250k  |

So much I could think of putting on this list; Just this morning have been dreaming of
- a massive photo by Peter Beard
- a large piece by Pierre Soulages
- Vik Muniz, one of the after Rothko series with pigments
- Basquiat, 3 or 4 of them please
- Dali, a hommage to Newton statue would do just fine
Will probably have a totally different list tomorrow
Funnily if i decided to put a lot of cash towards a piece of art, I would certainly not be looking for a Banksy, there about 100 pieces I would rather buy than a Banksy Canvas

Just kidding our house was a zoo about 10 years ago, unfortunately they die pretty regularly when you have a lot as they dont live very long so we stopped replacing them when the kiddies came along, we were in permenant mourning for a while, thought about a blue whale coz they live for ages but the back gardens not big enough to build a pond that size. Sorry getting sidetracked, do you draw animals? Edit sorry just saw the pics they werent on my phone when i typed the message. those are great i love the horsey shitting its own leg out!! You should post up more, i like your drawings  |

Just imagine the bragging factor if someone came over and that was hanging on the wall : ) |

Dr. Plip can you do crocodiles? When i was young i wanted to be a croc when i grew up, didnt work out(i actually told the long version of the story on the opening night of the gallery, it was much funnier in my head, i got nervous, started saying the first thing that came into my head, it was a good night, i spilt red wine all over my white shirt and didnt have a spare...

Oh, that was you? We wondered who the man in the dirty shirt, smelling like a brewery and rambling on about crocodiles was. |

If i had the budget , i think my house (a big new one  ) would be full of large Originals. The first that come to my mind are these ones but there are so many First, i would make an offer to alittle for this  Then i would buy this original (i already have the print but this image talk to me too much)  Then i would probably buy one of the "magazine" original by Vhils like this one  And obviously a big Jose Parlà like this one  But for sure i would also have a banksy, a Dran, a JR... Stop stop stop, i'm dreaming too much |

I would love any of the studies Siqueiros created before painting this majestic mural (Palacio de Bellas Artes, Mexico City).  |

I won't be greedy and ask for a painting, I'll be happy with a sketch from Toulouse Lautrec.

If money and reality were no object, I would love either Goya's painting of Saturn devouring his children.  Or a Banksy sketch. Something like this one.  |

Or this lovely Francis Bacon.  I remember the first time I saw a Francis Bacon "in the flesh". I was in the Herbert and quite unprepared, as I had no idea there was one on show. I turned around and there I was face to face with a truly wonderful painting. It was a visceral experience and I honestly wanted to have sex with it. |

I recently visited El Prado, and really want to like Goya... But just cannot get into his art. As for the Banksy sketch, how about this one?  It is clear to me, that two different people drew these two pieces; one can draw, the other can't. The conspiracy continues... |

I'd like a Miss Bugs resin piece, please, and a Banksy crude oil (the zappy ufos, please, or fag break). Less obviously, I loved Magritte as a child and I'd be delighted to own his bust L'Avenir des Statues (my avatar), though I've no idea where I'd put it. Finally I find old music manuscripts very beautiful – I know they weren't intended for exhibition, but there is something beautiful and humbling about them. This is a Bach manuscript from the British Library's collection, by way of example.  |
