  • Dripping Dots, Bardot
    By Cindy Shaoul
    Located in New York, NY
    A pop piece depicting Brigitte Bardot with layers of bright oils and whisking brush strokes, the paint is able to shine and shimmer in a very unique pattern. The artist uses gold drips, gold leaf, mixed media and pieces of glass to add a very contemporary, Urban feel. The way the paint blends and washes into other colors gives it a very elegant feel. This style is focused on the simplicity of beauty in the moment; the artist creates a translucent but very colorful pallet with thick use of paint, evoking a result which is clean, fresh and modern. This piece is from the artists Dripping Dots...

  • "Ben-day Sophia 1" Acrylic, oil, spray paint, pigment ink 36x28 canvas
    By Ceravolo
    Located in Southampton, NY
    "Benday Sophia 1" pays tribute to those paintings that became the trademark of Ceravolo's unique and trend setting style of painting. His work is collected worldwide and is in many important collections including, Sir Elton John, Rod Stewart, Hugh Hefner and Prince Jefri of Brunei to name only a few. In addition to those, his paintings came to popular attention when he was commissioned to create 5 large scale paintings for the lobby of The Palladium Theatre in New York City. In this painting, Ceravolo has featured an image of his pop art painting of Sophia Loren, and combined it with a pattern of benday dots to create the basis of "Benday Sophia 1". He then paints his trademark brush strokes and textures on the canvas over the pop art portrait. Then, he paints the "floating" illusion that creates the 3d floating effect he is known for. The Canvas measures 36x28".
