Ned’s Army

Add some edgy urban pop art to your home with this cool statement piece of art ‘Ned’s Army’.
This painting featuring 24 x monochrome Ned Kelly’s, the Australian bushranger/outlaw folk hero.

Drawing inspiration from Andy Warhol’s Marilyn Monroe Diptych and Banksy’s style mashed together.

I wanted it to look like a series of old black and white photos, which slightly fade out as you move across the canvas, giving it an old world eerie feeling.
By repeating one image again and again there is no focal point, so it forces the viewers eyes to wonder and dart across the canvas.

It has been created with stencils, using a monochrome palette with layers of metallic paint, spray paint and ink.

It has been finished with satin varnish, signed on the front ‘Debstar’ my street name :) and is ready to hang.

Dimensions of Canvas: 122cm wide x 122cm high x 3.5cm deep
Weight: Approx. 6kg
