About the Item
Bask, Original Contemporary Surrealist Figurative Mixed Media Portrait Painting
42" x 33" x 1.5" (HxWxD) Oil and Print on Canvas
This mixed media portrait by artist Sarah Jacobs features a lively and dynamic composition filled with a variety of patterns and natural subject matter that surround a smiling woman who reclines with her head resting back on her hands. Directly in front of her are two large tiger lilies that leap off of the canvas. The rest of the composition almost looks as though a wall has been layered with wallpaper and each one has been peeled back to expose another. Red and orange fall leaves stand contrast to a darker floral motif of purple flowers against a black background. Two additional patterns bring in a more man-made and art deco feel with the inclusion of ornate gold decoration. This style is very reminiscent of the works by contemporary portrait painter Kehinde Wiley.
Artist Commentary:
This is a portrait of my friend, Linda, who is also an artist. In some of her prints she takes elements of photos of her previous paintings and combines them digitally to create new imagery, so as an homage to her I used images of my previous paintings plus the new fall leaves pattern that I designed to create all of the imagery besides Linda, and parts of the lilies. She and they are painted. The rest is a printed collage of older paintings of mine.

The Vision - Surreal Black Female Portrait
Located in Miami, FL
This earlier work depicts an unexpected multicolored cone extending from the subject's eye. It represents a field of vision for a young Haitian female who gazes up. It reminds me of something Man Ray or the Dadaists did. Duval-Carrié's work is more than eye-opening.

"Another Dress Rehearsal" Oil on Canvas Fantasy Surreal celebrated London artist
By George Underwood
Located in Southampton, NY
In continuing with representing fine artists that are connected to the music industry we are please to announce that we are the only gallery in the United States representing the oil on canvas paintings of acclaimed British artist George Underwood. That is great news for collectors based in the United States. They do not have to pay any import fees or international shipping costs or any international tariffs which are costly. So this is a great opportunity to purchase a work of art by this acclaimed British artist. His paintings have been described as Magical with a touch of Fantasy.
When David Bowie, a life long friend of George Underwood, was asked about the paintings of George Underwood, Bowie said "George has, over the years, refined his work to the point where I would put him among the top figurative painters coming out of the UK.... There's a sublime isolation surrounding his subjects that really touches the viewer, the figures being both heroic and vulnerable simultaneously".
George Underwood, a life-long friend of David Bowie, were in early bands together and Underwood was asked by Bowie to created the classic cover artwork for David Bowie's "Ziggy Stardust" album and also for David's "Hunky Dory" album. George felt that his friend artist Terry Pastor would better create the hand colored airbrush look for the album covers so he had Terry create the cover artwork.
A fun fact is that David and George were both in the same art class taught by Peter Frampton's Dad when they were youngsters and they remained great friends throughout David's life. I have included some images of Bowie and George Underwood over the years in this listing to show the close relationship they had since they were young lads.
