8 Track

Quick history lesson - 8 track cartridges were how people listened to music in cars in the 1970s. And Pink Floyd, of course, are one of the giants of 1970s prog rock.

As I've done in the past with book covers, album covers, boardgames, vintage advertising and so on, I've taken the image of a Pink Floyd 8 track cartridge and messed it up. I love that contrast and balance between clean design and rough brushstrokes, drips, spatters and texture.

Please note that the canvas has painted edges, and it's ready to hang without needing to be framed. The painting has a glossy varnish.

A fun pop artwork that will look great in any room!

Painter from the Blue Mountains. I've had paintings in the Sulman Prize 2012‚ Mosman Prize 2012‚ Calleen Art Prize 2013‚ Gallipoli Art Prize 2014 & 2016, Gosford Art Prize 2018 & 2018, the ANL Maritime Art Prize 2018 and the 2019 Hawkesbury Art Prize (winner). In the last nine years I've had a lot of success with abstract paintings, drawing inspiration from the covers of 'Popular Penguin' paperback books, from the classic Monopoly board, Uno cards, and other pop culture icons. The paintings are distorted representations of the subject matter, transformed with thick brushstrokes and often random lettering, retaining the essence of the original but also becoming something new. I have had sell out shows in Sydney, Melbourne and Singapore. My art has been featured in Art Edit magazine, The Grand Designs Australia Sourcebook and the Financial Review. PLEASE NOTE - commissions now closed for 2024. Thank you!
