Carl Smith
Tremendous! - Original Surrealist Red Paint Brush Circle Pop Art on Canvas

2025

About the Item

Carl Smith explores the area between Pop Art and Surrealism and expresses it in one-of-a-kind original works on canvas, paper or wood. With the use of found images he tells slightly absurd and humorous visual anecdotes. He works with a combination of silkscreen printing, collage, and painting. The process of making these narrative works is what Smith refers to as, 'Drawing with Pictures'. This 31.5 inch high by 29.75 inch wide unique artwork is wired, framed in a brown wood frame, and ready to hang. Smith combines his own photography with drawings and other narrative fragments. He works with several layout combinations before creating a finished image. From this finished layout, he selects and transmits individual pieces onto a canvas through screen-printing and further completes his works with oil or acrylic paint. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and worldwide shipping is available. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included. Carl Smith is originally from Santa Fe, New Mexico, and studied art at Cooper Union in New York. He has been living in Berlin, Germany since 2001. Smith is particularly interested in the endless possibilities of book design, inspiring a collection of fine art book spines by the artist: "I am especially intrigued by the appearance of books when they are together in large, disorderly groups where all their different colors and styles somehow find a certain harmony. In many of my pieces I have sought to draw attention to this dynamic and experiment with the visual possibilities of stacking and leaning the books on each other like some kind of abstracted building block. In short, as a visual artist who works primarily with collage, I find books to be endlessly inspiring. They are so ordinary, yet they can be so sublime." Smith's graphic surreal works have been exhibited and collected in Germany, Norway, England, and the United States.

Double Dog Dream - Original Pop Art Painting on Canvas
By Marion Duschletta
Located in Los Angeles, CA
Swiss artist Marion Duschletta transforms luxury objects and urban landscapes from around the world into unique layered artworks. She combines an intriguing mixture of urban photographs and American pop icons opposite brand names and advertising references, adding bold colors and compelling patterns. She transfers them onto archival paper which is mounted on canvas. The pop art imagery is often distressed in an attempt to emphasize a bygone era. She further enhances the artworks with acrylic paint and texture, adding depth to her paintings. This vibrant one-of-a-kind 8 inch post-pop square artwork is created with mixed media on canvas. The sides of the artwork are finished with a textured white paint, and it does not require framing. Convenient local Los Angeles area shipping. Affordable U.S. and global shipping also available.
