Myron Stephens
Fly With Me / trompe l'oeil painting - bar scene martini fun painting

2014

About the Item

Fly With Me is a trompe loeil painting with the appearance of chalk and masking tape, but is in truth a painting, painstakingly created with oil and acrylic paint on wood. A joy to behold. The work is fun and humorous, and includes male and female stick figure dancers, fancy footwork diagram, and what appears to be masking tape pressed into the shape of a martini glass with single olive. All created via painting, by artist Myron Stephens, who is a master of observation, and a phenomenal contemporary American artist. In Myron Stephens' series of trompe-l'œil oil and acrylic paintings, the artist realistically recreates images of mundane objects taped to what appears to be chalkboards covered with free spirited ideas, inspiration and stick figures. Masterfully painted using a "tricks the eye" technique, the artist uses small brushes with oil and acrylic paint on panel to create the witty, charming and unique works of art, via his optical illusion way of painting. As with Stephen's other series' including urban scenes that draw from mid century ideas, ideals and cinema noir—Stephen's signature humor and unique perspective are ever present.
