Description
Gillie and Marc’s Elephant Love is a whimsical and thought-provoking piece that merges pop art influences with street art aesthetics. The artwork features a young elephant delicately balanced on a banana, a surreal and playful composition that invites curiosity and interpretation. The bold black outlines, contrasted with a vibrant spectrum of blues, yellows, and pinks, bring the elephant to life, emphasizing its innocence and charm. The background, an explosion of neon hues and abstract patterns, adds a sense of movement and energy, reinforcing the contemporary urban style of the piece. The banana, often a symbol of humor and unpredictability in pop art, introduces an element of lightheartedness, reminding viewers to find joy in the unexpected. Elephant Love is a celebration of playfulness, resilience, and the beauty of seeing the world through a fresh and imaginative lens.
Artwork Features
The purest example of the artist’s freehand work, Gillie and Marc’s ‘Contemporary Line & Stencil Paintings’ are a stunning series that pairs unashamedly bold colors with deep black line work to form intimate moments featuring their signature alter egos, endangered wildlife and more. The carefully selected vivid colors and unmistakable imagery means no two pieces are alike and can have multiple meanings the more they are viewed. Gillie and Marc paint each unique canvas side-by-side ensuring love is engrained in every brushstroke of each one-of-a-kind work of art. Recently inspired by the pop style of Andy Warhol and the iconic stencils of street artists Banksy and Mr. Brainwash, Gillie and Marc expanded their collection with the edgy addition of using spray paint stencils on their canvases. The stark contrast of bright colors beneath a dark stencil breathes life into this limited series, embodying Gillie and Marc’s philosophy of the importance of accessible art by playfully bringing the street to the canvas.
Please note: All canvases come stretched and ready to hang, however if you would like your painting to be framed, Gillie and Marc are happy to provide this service for you at your request. For framing enquiries please email us.
