About the Item
“Untitled Female" is a colorful piece by Richard Wilson that has meaning for native Detroiters through use of the blues and oranges - their "Tiger" baseball team's colors and the "D" of the females earrings. Detroit is frequently referred to as "The D."
Wilson has a great admiration for Stevie Wonder and as a gift to the city of Detroit he painted a mural of Stevie Wonder on outside wall of the Music Hall. Richard Wilson began as a graffiti artist in 1984 when he began “writing” graffiti. He states: It’s something that never leaves you so even though from 1989 – 2012 I didn’t do any form of artwork at all, I was still heavily interested in who was up, who was writing, watching styles evolve.” In 2012 he started to get back into art, doing some pieces when he could but by then his fascination with portraiture had begun. He tried some different mediums and ways, pencil sketches and more realistic acrylic paintings, but he really wanted to be able to try and emulate art heroes like Belin and Smug and be able to paint faces in spray paint. He did his first one in June 2016.
At that time he was doing various large portraits in spray paint around his day job working at Bonhams Auctioneers which is where his love of portraits and figurative work really took hold. Daily he would be able to look at Old Master Paintings and also Contemporary pieces and it became a passion of his … to paint people that inspired him and art that tells a story and in particular to be able to paint big walls when he can and where he can paint something that can connect with the surround community. This aspect of Street Art/Mural art is extremely important to him.
In January 2017 he began using oil paints as well and since then has been focusing more on canvas pieces using mainly oils along with his mural work. He currently has a studio in West London working on his art full time taking on commissioned pieces and his own personal projects.
Richard painted a massive mural commemorating Motown great Stevie Wonder in Detroit on the side of Detroit’s Music Hall Center for the Performing Arts. It is a 100 foot-tall, 8,000-square-foot painting. Wilson started the project on Wonder's 69th birthday in May 2019 and completed in July of that year. This year also happens to mark the 60th anniversary of Motown records where Stevie Wonder got his start.

"Muse of Vitality", Encaustic, Oil, and Paper on Wood
Located in Detroit, MI
Celebrating our common colors as well as our diversity is Linden Godlove’s latest series of encaustics, “The Muses.” The paintings are modeled after icons, with a direct gaze that hearkens a response to their spirit, to find company in their character. This particular piece is the "Muse of Vitality" and is part of a set of nine that are sold separately from one another.
Encaustic painting is an ancient art form (some early icons are encaustic), where hot wax is mixed with pigment and resin, and painted while liquid. Throughout the process, everything is repeatedly fused with fire and sometimes things melt in an unintended direction. Linden’s process involves repeatedly carving parts out and filling them back in, so the works are splayed out in a loose application of hot liquid, then cut back, then washed over with brushes of hot wax again. It’s a combination of chaos and control.
The series draws inspiration from women all over the globe, as originally photographed by Mihaela Noroc for her book The Atlas of Beauty. A portion of the proceeds from these sales will go towards her project.
While internationally influenced, the pieces were painted, scraped, and carved at the artist’s hundred year old Detroit...
