Maddarings Hand on Yellow Paintings 1 to 20

Maddarings Hand on Yellow Paintings 1 to 20

Author: Jompiy May 7, 2026 Duration: 10:59
I did these paintings for Maddarings after I bought some rings there. I now have 7 rings from them. I don't like wearing rings on my thumb, so have reached my full quota with 7 as I already have an engagement ring, even though it's on the wrong finger. This video shows numbers 1 to 20 of the series. See my other video on how to find them at Camden Market, but there at the Maddarings stall at Camden Market near Cyberdog and the Amy Winehouse state, on Makers Alley. The lady there is called Shelley, and is my ex-wife and fellow member of the band Elbow Sisters. These paintings are acrylic on paper, glued to cardboard. They are traced from a drawing I did of my hand with the first two rings I bought from Maddarings. Now, if anyone comments on my rings when I'm doing The Camden Market Free Art Man, I can send them down to Maddarings and hopefully drum them up some extra business. But, I suppose I can also do the same when I'm not at Camden. Rings are like Advertism, in that they are the passive publicity gift that keeps on giving even after the purchase has been made I PVA glued over the top of these paintings and made them double sided by putting some more art work on the reverse. They are ready to hang as I stamped some holes in the top corners for nails to go through.

Camden Market was quiet and windy today, but still managed to give away more large paintings than usual to passers by. It was windy but not in the direction that often blows my art into the road. Free Art Frees Art.
