Original artwork description:

This large figurative piece derives inspiration from the Jimmy Olsen character from DC comics, a young photo journalist and sometime side kick of Superman. The window pane effect is executed in transparent lacquers intermixed with iridescent pigments that cause the painting to shimmer. The shattering glass within the image is emphasised by the application of silver leaf. This is further a complimented by the incised thunder-ball graphic that is routed into the surface of the panel. The whole painting has a capacity to subtlety change as ambient light angles and sources change with the transition of day into night.

Materials used:

Acrylic on routed MDF panel.
