Lunatics & Legends Card (Harley Quinn) 

I first introduced ‘Lunatics and Legends’ in 2020 as an exciting alternative to my intense, narrative-driven scene pieces. A much more blatant, ‘in your face’ abstract style of mixed media work that was all about the texture and embraced my blurred ‘push and pull’ method of creating a digital image. I had used the style long before this for much more niche subjects, so it was great to go to town on big superheroes and twisted villains. Despite these pieces not relying on a multi-layered narrative to solve what you see, there is still that element to them where the lines between who is the hero and who is the villain are as blurred as parts of the image itself. A lot has happened in the past couple of years, and I am so pleased to see the success of this style of work whilst I have been busy conceiving and delivering exciting and engaging new formats to showcase my art. One of those has been the incredibly popular and versatile VHS edition, largely due to the compact size and the level of hand embellishing that all come together to create something truly special. The Story Book editions evolved from this earlier this year and through being sized and framed the same, can be displayed side by side with the VHS editions.
