John Stephens
"Our Lady of the Foam", John Stephens, Acrylic Painting, Surrealism, 24x30

2010

About the Item

This John Stephens original acrylic on panel painting measures 24x30 in and is available for $27,500. "Our Lady of the Foam" features a woman inside a greek mythology dome covered in pearls as she walks on the seashell filled ground floor of the ocean. Fantasy never took on a more literal state than in the dreamscapes designed by John Stephens. Religious themes – both man-made and natural – are solidified in impressions of stained glass and gushing waterfalls, and each painting feels strangely grandiose and awe-inspiring. From a lack of proportion reminiscent of Alice in Wonderland, to the depiction of entire mountain ranges residing within cathedrals, the absurdity of the subject matter is offset only by the philosophical symbolism it’s underlined with.
