Of all the paintings I've taken to The Camden Market Free Art Man, the Blond Card series ones have been the most popular. I only started making them recently but now have about 16 of them for sale at Maddarings, a silver jewellery shop on Makers Alley, a five minute walk from my Free Art Frees Art display on Camden Lock bridge. This is the second series of paintings I've tried selling there. The first didn't sell at all. £10 for an A4 size acrylic painting glued to a larger, handcut piece of cardboard. I thought they'd be popular, but sold zero in the month they were there... 
Smaller works are more popular than larger ones at The Camden Market Free Art Man and can be sold cheaper. At Maddarings, we're starting them at £5, half the online price, but I'm hoping to put them up to £10 if they start selling quick. If the price tag was more clearly visible, it would help. I'll fix this next time I'm there. Nowhere I tried today sold Blu Tac or anything similar, including the big supermarket. It amazes me that I can buy sticky tack in the remote rural Thai village I was staying at earlier this year, but not Camden. This is how they look... 
Each Blond Card character is named on the front and almost all are connected to Camden in some way. If this was obvious in the display, I'm sure it would also help sell them but not sure how to do this yet without taking up too much space. I only need to sell a few before going to other retailers at Camden. Hopefully ones where the paintings suit the rest of the shop more. One of the cards is of 
Hive account@ronthroop and another is of 
Hive account@offgridlife. Mooney is my bandmate in Strawberry Cake. Shelley was my bandmate in Elbow Sisters. Heckel's Horse is a painting collaboration Billy Childish and I have been working on these past 13 years. Guitar Guitar is the shop I get most of my cardboard from. As can be seen in the second half of tonights video from Camden...
The two minutes of uninterupted cardboard cutting was influenced by the scene in Nick Broomfield's Chicken Ranch where he leaves the camera on a lady dancing for ages. A lot longer than two minutes. Then before leaving, I tried leaving a present for Guitar Guitar for letting me take their cardboard, but couldn't find a letterbox. A Guitar Guitar Blond card wrapped up in a Camden Market Free Art Man booklet... 
On the way to the bus stop, walking along Camden High Street, I saw a band playing through the window of The Elephant's Head pub. The Elephant's Head will be a Blond Card character as an elephant's head is already the logo for my art group Black Ivory.
