This is an example of a vivid imagination running away with me using the iconic ‘picture’ of Lara Croft wielding a gun against the explosive colours and forms of Lichtenstein’s ‘Wham’. Here, the radiating shapes dance in the background against Lara’s still, yet dominant, threatening pose.
The picture is composed of approximately 3,000 used postage stamps. The stamp colours are not altered and post marks are still visible on close observation. I have used acrylic paint sparingly placed alongside a sanded textured paint giving a more dramatic effect to the picture which I created on quality deep edge canvas. It is not framed and should not be displayed in direct sunlight although all canvases are varnished twice and have a coat of U.V. protection.
