Sheefy McFly"Lil Sherbert" Colorful, African American, Black Linear Dominating Lines2019
2019
About the Item
"Lil Sherbert" is a very colorful painting of an African American subject with a heavy black linear element. The title suggests a specific individual, although the rendering is abstract, and the confining quality of the heavy black lines is easily relived by the intense primary colors. This is an altogether exciting juxtaposition of colors and emotional energy. Painted by Sheefy McFly, an outrageous two-dimensional artist, performance artist, singer, songwriter, Renaissance Man, Hip Hop/Rap crazy Detroiter. And we love him.
As reported by the Detroit Free Press: McFly, who is a rapper, DJ, and music-producing polymath, has become a sought-after artist in recent years for his vivid and fun illustrative style that looks and feels like a hip-hop makeover of Saturday morning cartoons of yore. His first mural for the City Walls program was an homage to local pop culture featuring Cartier glasses and a quote from the late Detroit rapper Blade Icewood.
McFly — whose real name is Tashif Turner — was hired through the city’s managing contractor 1xRun, a Detroit-based art publishing house that also oversees the annual Murals in the Market street art festival in Eastern Market.
