Sweetarts & Poptarts Painting

I like to use bold colors with a painterly sensibility to combine popular iconic images, comics, phrases and type to create thematic pop art...at least for the most part. Applying my graphic art background and my love for painting, I try and create bold artwork that reflects my observations on the culture we live in, either the profound, or the ridiculous and sometimes just the beauty. Using juxtapositions of symbolism and tongue in cheek metaphors my work doesn’t always reveal itself at first glance. The deeper meaning can be found after the initial pop eye candy has time to settle into the consciousness...if there is a meaning at all. By means of textures, collages and a variety of surfaces I continue my development by always experimenting with different techniques to create my artwork. The paintings shown here are small samples of my work; if interested in my artwork or if you have any comments, observations or questions please shoot me a message Instagram: davidwoodwardstudio davidwoodwardstudio.com
