FIRST PRIZE CANVAS

Canvas called First Prize. Large figure with little figure with rosette kind of image with something hanging from ribbon which reads "Police each other to the point of paralysis". Small figure next to rosette and standing on a sideboard. Large figure is holding a flower. References cancel culture.

Seeing people get their phones up in people’s faces and then putting them out of work inspired this piece.  Policing each other to the point of paralysis, to me is where we could be going in society.  A place where people simply stop talking to each other.  10” x 12” canvas.  One-off.

ORANGE MAN CANVAS

10"x12"canvas called the Orange Man. Large figure on the left holding a flower. Behind the figure is a sideboard and a smaller figure in some kind of yoga pose with one hand and one foot on the sideboard and the other foot and hand raised. There is a light at the top of the image. The smaller figure wears an orange jumpsuit. Blue background.

The Orange Man makes me think of that man in America, I’m sure you know who.  The jumpsuit, well it’s making me think of the uniform of the captive.  Orange is the colour that America chose for its prisoners, apparently just because it is bright.  Blessed be the fruit.  Looking at the red shoes I’m now thinking about Wild at Heart by David Lynch.  That really was a wild film, one of the most memorable I feel, what a love story. 

My work has a main figure and a smaller figure and this could be the alter ego or childhood memories, it could be someone you have lost too.  Who knows what the alter ego is, it could be a face we put on at work, it could be part of our personalities that are kept largely hidden, maybe it’s what we would really like to say to people but know that we can’t.  You’ll find gender ambiguity in my work too, you can decide what the work means to you.  There’s old fashioned images too like here the sideboard and the light.  I loved the décor of the 60s and 70s.

FIGURES WITH RADIO CANVAS

Canvas of two figures with the radio. Smaller image.

Anything with a radio makes me think of Pauline Black and that’s pretty obvious.  My work with a large and small figure, to me, references the alter ego or something like memories, things from our past.  Canvas which is 10in x 12 in.  Original, one-off.

A design for a multicultural Britain which is available on my Redbubble account – shrewdmovenet.

If you would like me to work on some design for you please get in touch to discuss.

Ska d'cat bookmark. Pink background. Red hearts on the art work.

It shouldn’t be too difficult to work out what this design is about.  Yes, lovers of Ska will recognise the signature black and white and then, of course, it’s a cat.  Thrown in the mix is a play on words, that’s it really … here’s Ska d’cat.  You will find originals on this website and the digital design is available on my Redbubble account – shrewdmovenet.

The Moog sythesizer is widely loved all over the world, so here’s a nod to it … Moog Doog.  Available as original art work on this website and you will find the digital designs on my Redbubble account – shrewdmovenet.

If I can design something for you just get in touch to discuss.

Design Moog Doog based on music gentre and the moog synthesizer. Character that I have created that has features on a cartoon-like dog that look like the knobs and buttons on a synthesizer. Links to Red Bubble account for digital design of Moog Doog too.
