Artwork of the Week - 4th August 2014

Posted by Union Art 04/08/2014 0 Comment(s) Artwork of the Week,

Lhouette - Angel Cake

We are pleased  to bring you a new collection of Hand Embellished Signed Limited Edition Prints by the artist Lhouette. His Limited Edition Prints are all low edition sizes of just 35, the low edition size together with his growing popularity means his work sells out very quickly. We recommend a speedy purchase to avoid missing out on this fabulous artists work.

Angel Cake is one of the new artworks in his collection and we have selected it as a "top pick". The artwork is vibrant and with the added touch of gold leaf it really would be a feature piece in any room. It's supplied on canvas and is framed ready to go straight on the wall. It's a highly contemporary piece of artwork with a mix of street art and pop art.

Lhouette is influenced by glamour and beauty and he spends a lot of time flicking through magazines sourcing imagery and creating juxtaposing collages. Lhouette describes his art as "Post Urban Glamour".

Lhouette uses a particular stencilling technique in much of his work, filling the outlines with high impact coloured patterns, symbols, images and text. His mixed media work is built up of acrylic and aerosol on rough ply canvas finished with a clear lacquer resin. Lhouette states 'I'm obsessed with colour and texture it plays an important role in my paintings, acting as a kind of grab line for an audience before hopefully discovering further meaning to a piece'. His work isn't an obvious vehicle for controversy but it does hint at and play on social unrest, often through the female form.

Lhouette's full collection of Limited Edition Prints can be seen at Union Art.
