Titled 'scarlet blood', it belongs to the 'neon_ghetto_flux' collection of works produced in 2022. The 'neon_ghetto_flux' collection is notable for the use of flat planes and overlays of bright colour.

'scarlet blood' is no exception. The artist has taken a dive into the subconscious where a merge of warm and rich overlaying colours and flicks of subtle shapes have come together.

"The Australian outback is home and a symbol to so many. Its richness and warmth can hardly be matched. I looked down at the earth and it painted a picture in my mind. It spoke, and I answered the call."

Melbourne-based artist Simon Lovell is a graphic designer with 20 years of experience, having collaborated with both local and international clients. Leveraging his expertise in digital design and influenced by his time spent in Japan, Simon creates vivid imagery inspired by Japanese experiences, ukiyo-e (woodblock prints), and the landscape of his subconscious.

As a contemporary artist, Simon combines digital technology with his traditional fine art education. This mixed-media approach, blending ‘digital & fine art,’ pushes artistic boundaries, resulting in works that are intensely vibrant and bright, or contemplative and subdued. Simon’s creations merge hand-drawn illustrations and linocuts with digital technology and experiences, appealing to a discerning art collector audience and enhancing the authenticity and value of his work.

Recently, Simon was honored with the 2023 Aesop Value Recognition Award in Creativity.
