An original 36\" x 36\" mixed media painting by Mr. Clever Art, rendered in his signature gold technique: a high-contrast stencil portrait staring straight out from behind blacked-out shades, crowned not with hair but with a writhing mass of blue serpents. The oldest story about a woman punished for being looked at, told in gold, paint and torn paper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat You're Looking At\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe artist's signature gold technique\u003c\/strong\u003e, a proprietary process developed by Mr. Clever Art, worked across the surface in sculptural ridges that catch the light differently as you move past the canvas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA crown of blue and teal serpents\u003c\/strong\u003e built up in heavy, tactile paint, coiling out past the edges of the composition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollaged found material\u003c\/strong\u003e buried underneath - torn city maps, newsprint, vintage advertising, fragments of cracked classical statuary\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eViolet and magenta passages\u003c\/strong\u003e cutting through the gold for contrast and movement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGold that refuses to stay put\u003c\/strong\u003e, running off the canvas edges in heavy molten drips\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy It Works on a Wall\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA full three feet square, this is a conversation piece with real physical presence. The gold shifts with the light through the day, so she never looks quite the same at noon as she does under a lamp at night. Up close you keep finding new buried details in the collage; from across the room she lands as one bold graphic statement, and she does not blink first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOne of a kind\u003c\/strong\u003e - an original work, not a print or reproduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e36\" x 36\"\u003c\/strong\u003e mixed media on canvas - acrylic, the artist's signature gold medium, and collaged paper ephemera\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHand-painted in Los Angeles\u003c\/strong\u003e by Mr. Clever Art\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSigned by the artist\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShips ready to hang\u003c\/strong\u003e, carefully packed for safe transit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCollectors of contemporary street and pop art, anyone drawn to mythology reframed with teeth, and rooms built around one commanding focal piece.
