SHIPPED IN A TUBE - REQUIRES STRETCHING
Part of my ‘Sketches Gone Awry’ series, these paintings are a cross between urban pop art, life drawings and a sprinkle of surrealism. I’m fascinated with the conversation between architecture, pop iconography and human development. This is me sitting in cafes watching the world go by, collating sketches from observation then taking that to the canvas and brewing a cocktail community around a theme.
With this work I've kept a restricted palette with very chunky/heavy impasto paint marks and allowed the negative space to tell the rest of story. I’m preserving the observational element with figures, fusing them with layers of colour in semi-gloss.
STRETCHING & FRAMING
This painting is acrylic on UNSTRETCHED canvas and comes rolled in a tube, ready for stretching & framing. Offering my work unstretched keeps the costs down for my collectors, making very large scale work more affordable and safer to transport. Working like this also allows the painting to extend around the edges, which means the painting will look great without a decorative frame. For stretching and/or framing, utilise Bluethumb’s 'ADD A HAND-MADE FRAME >' to the right of screen above the 'ADD TO CART' button.
*Please note any in situ images of this artwork is to offer decor, installation and framing examples only and although I try my best to get it right they are never going to be perfectly to scale.
