An amazing, challenging painting that continues to fascinate you, because of distractions and all playful details. This artwork is a special eye-catcher for every room.
Mixed Media Technique
This mixed media painting is made from cassette tapes, on which multiple layers of acrylic have been applied using spray paint, brush and markers.
Background
This artwork has no color in the background and transparent tapes without large labels have been chosen to put all the attention on the image.
Painting
The guitar is the only colorful part in the painting, designed by labels of tapes in natural, soft colors. By using soft colors, the guitar stands out, but does not distract
from the portrait. There is a balance in this painting.
The beauty of this painting is that color is used in a different way, not through paint, but through the use of materials.
Kurt Cobain smokes a cigarette while playing guitar. The black acrylic is painted over white spray paint with a brush and marker.
Framing
The image area is bordered by a sleek wooden frame, which provides a modern finish.
COLLECTION SOUNDS
This beautiful art collection mainly consists of music related pop art paintings with celebrities/icons. It is decorative art with everyday utensils from the consumer society. The reuse of materials brings the artworks to life. Monique brings her art to life among people. The collection consists of modern paintings with a touch of retro, vintage style. That is what makes these paintings so special. These distinctive contemporary artworks are not only one of a kind, but they also connect the past with the present.
It symbolizes the circle of life:
Discarded objects get their appreciation again. It's modern art, but it takes you back to the past. The artistic imperfections in the painting give the feeling that the artwork has been alive for years.
Every painting in this collection is eccentric. The character of this collection is enhanced by the many uniquely detailed design aspects that differ per painting.
How did these mixed media paintings come about?
Monique started this collection spontaneously. When she found cassette tapes, she thought it would be a shame to throw them away. There was still too much value in and memories of these beautiful, colorful, nostalgic objects. Monique then decided to turn it into wall art. The cassette tapes were mounted on a wooden plate and then she started painting icons of all times on it. Every artwork from this collection is completely handmade, also the wooden, permanently attached frame.
