About the Item

Oh, to be in love! With his unique ability to meld his love of vintage colors, with childhood memories and characters, Sam Melendez's paintings are as personal as they are playful. The undying love of two of television's most iconic characters - Mickey and Minnie Mouse - sets the stage for this cheeky canvas. As a bright addition to a bedroom, or a warm accent in a neutral space, this painting is sure to bring warmth and smiles into your home. About Sam Meléndez: Sam Meléndez combines his love for all things vintage and bright colors from his home, Puerto Rico, in his work. Evidence of his process is an integral component of his paintings, creating an authentic personal narrative alongside the subject he depicts. For this reason, the grit that charcoal marks leave behind and the notes he makes while sketching the pieces are important to the final compositions. "I love the combination of the raw, black and white of the charcoal and bare canvas contrasted with the super bright colors I work with."
