# This piece includes an Oak floater frame. Please let me know if you prefer black, natural or white.
Howdy spunky art lover. Thank you so much for checking out “Neon.” This bright Marilyn Monroe piece is the latest addition to my "Heads" series and features fluro pink, oranges, yellows, teal, turquoise, blues, purples, green, black and white acrylics, inks and oils on a heavily textured and layered canvas base.
This series is the first where I am including beautiful Tasmanian Oak Floater frames as part of the sale. Kindly let me know if you prefer Black, Natural or White after checkout.
This is a developing range, so you can expect to see lots of different subject coming thru, all based on the same principles of texture, depth and abstract styled bases, so there is no mistaking this painting for being an original painting, as opposed to a FLAT print. This painting will NEVER EVER be sold as a print. This painting has LIFE and will stay that way. The main focus of this collection is the "Abstract Realism" Heads series. This series features varied subject matter including Geishas, Native Americans, Aboriginals, sporting legends and lots of pop icons such as Marilyn, Hendrix, Lennon, Williams, Prince, Bowie to name a few. These pieces are always created by hand, brush and spatulas with acrylics and textured oils (no spray or screen-printing). They feature 100% textured bases and often feature hand created stippling. They are super immersive to produce.
Close cousins to these Heads pieces and of the same highly textures bases are pieces featuring animals such as Cows and Emus, Famous Landscapes and Cityscapes, Chanel Bottles, Furniture, Moto GP riders, V8s and Flora. They are also highly commissionable and I do a lot of pieces of loved ones, pets and peoples own favorite entertainers or subject matters and nudes (you not me....mmm...did see my Christmas posts!)
They are created on a 40mm frame wrapped in the highest quality canvas, with a triple varnish coat and gallery finished edges painted and finished as such. A “canvas” really has 5 faces. If this piece caught your eye but it’s not quite the right size or colours, or you would like something more personal, do reach out and lets discuss possibilities.
Mumma Bear and spunky wife Wendy is CFO and big cheese. To add to the family vibe, since the world was rocked by covid, both of my offspring (Franksy and Franketta as I call them) have become fulltime understudies, having “helped out Dad” during their school years. Under my watchful eye, they are both now collaborating with me at the highest level.
Most paintings arrive ready to install with hardware installed on the rear. It is recommended that the really really big ones, some of the heavier pieces and some of the specialist pieces, such as pallets, be installed by a professional hanger. This is cheaper than you may think and would be in the $150 to $250 range. We have partners in most areas that can be recommended if you need help. If you would like more information, just ask away.
Provided with listings are some insitu images. We strive to ensure they are accurate in scale. Sometimes we will add an external frame to the painting insitu, to provide a vibe for how that would look also. As mentioned above, my pieces arrive ready to install with gallery finished edges and honestly, most people don’t add external framing. However, it is of course an option. If you have any questions, please let me know. We are here to help and want to make it as easy as possible for you if your décor aspirations require it.
Global shipping is included in the listed prices however, if you happened to be in an extremely remote area or country, we may put our hand up and ask for a little bit of monetary assistance. We package the paintings securely in twin walled, reinforced, CUSTOM MADE “Franko” cartons, with additional protective inserts & of course the painting is wrapped in bubble wrap and often felt, for rub protection.
