Guy has a fascination with stamps. His fascination was something that just came to him by luck, the way Guy works artistically is by finding pieces that inspire, this inspiration goes anywhere from illustrated stamps, to Japanese manhole covers. Japanese design has been a prominent source of inspiration for Guy, it was a 1989 Japanese postage stamp that he found that kickstarted this obsession, and is why we have his work today. Guy has now worked with stamps of over 100 nations.
Guy's creative process includes scanning the stamp, then using editing software he picks apart his favourite aspects and blends them together to create something new, he calls this process 'digitally revised'. Guy has the right creative eye to make something that was already beautiful become incredible. Postage stamps were invented in England in 1840 and made global communication easier than ever. Guy's work is a wonderful blend of different cultures, eras and creative styles. His charming compositions are a celebration of old and new illustrations, bringing new life to something once forgotten about.
These works are the perfect reminder / souvenir for those special vacations

- Venice Biennale: XLIV Esposizione Internazionale D'arte (Hand signed by Kapoor)By Anish KapoorLocated in New York, NYAnish Kapoor Venice Biennale: XLIV Esposizione Internazionale D'arte Biennale Di Venezia (Hand signed and inscribed by Anish Kapoor), 1990 HISTORIC signed poster published on the occasion of Kapoor representing Great Britain at the Venice Biennale Offset lithograph poster (Hand signed, inscribed to Nadine and dated 2016) Boldly signed, inscribed and dated by Anish Kapoor on the lower right front 33 × 23 inches Unframed Boldly signed and inscribed by Anish Kapoor on the lower right front for the present owner, Nadine, so provenance is direct. This offset lithograph poster was published on the occasion of Anish Kapoor's exhibition "XLIV Esposizione Internazionale D'Arte" at the Biennale Di Venezia from May 27 to September 30, 1990. Hand signed posters by Kapoor are quite elusive. The poster is two sided as it was published on the occasion of the artist's participation in the 1990 Venice Biennale (the verso has his lengthy biography), and it bears the original folds as issued. British-Indian sculptor Anish Kapoor was chosen to represent Britain at the first Biennale of the 1990s. He had been exhibiting since 1980 but it was this show that brought him widespread recognition on the international stage. Sixteen huge sandstone blocks dominated the Pavilion’s main room; they were so heavy that the floor had to be reinforced with supports. Kapoor had started working in stone in the late 1980s and each block in Void Field (1989) has a hole filled with another motif in his work, the powdered blue pigment used in Indian religious ceremonies. The same vibrant tones, which was also inspired also by Yves Klein’s statement bold blue colour, were used in his low-lying slate sculpture, A Wing at the Heart of Things (1990), in the back gallery of the Pavilion; this work is now part of Tate’s collection. “Venice is an interchange of East and West, reflecting the way Kapoor borrows from both cultures” said Henry Meyric Hughes, British Council. Kapoor’s exhibition also wove together references to spiritualism and eroticism, with the red slit in the Pavilion's wall, entitled The Healing of St. Thomas (1989), alluding to the saint that doubted Jesus’ resurrection...Category
