All-weather aluminium posters - for the garden, kitchen or bathroom

Eric Jackson May 8, 2020
The posters I have completed since the start of the year.

The garden centres may be out of bounds - for now - but while you may not be able to buy flowers or plants for your garden, you can buy one of my posters.

I am now producing them in weather resistant, heavy-duty aluminium (di-bond for the technical), which you can hang on walls or fences, or in those damper places in your house, such as kitchens and bathrooms.

Anthony and Jane in Davenport, Stockport, have just ordered four (Manc-hattan, Stockport pyramid, Marple and Davenport), and they now proudly adorn their garden fence.

Visit the page on my website, www.statementartworks.com, to see how to order.

I have also recently finished the Cheadle poster, bringing the total to six for 2020, with several more on the drawing board. The lockdown is massively weird, but it’s helping me get lots of studio work done.

The pictures show Anthony and Jane’s fence and all my posters of 2020.

Hope you’re all keeping safe and well - Eric

Comment

From the Manchester Evening News

Stone Roses singer Ian Brown famously said ‘Manchester’s got everything except a beach’ - but now it’s even being touted as a seaside resort by an artist.

Eric Jackson has created posters of different towns and cities in the region and are inspired by traditional seaside advertisements for tourists.

But the humorous posters have a twist as they actually poke fun at the places they depict.

Eric, 58, said: “They are meant to be a bit cheeky without being offensive, to highlight the idiosyncrasies and quirkiness of a place.

“For example, the headline on the Chorlton poster, which shows a yoga woman with a teapot on her head, is: ‘Be different – just like everyone else in Chorlton.’

“The people of Chorlton will get that joke and hopefully laugh at it.”
