Escandalo
"¡Escándalo!" - Ballpoint Pen & Digital Illustration
Another favourite of mine from my 2024 solo show (Los Luchadores vs Cowboys De La Muerte Pt. II). Here we see a shocking moment whereby our Luchador-hero; El Santo accidentally interrupts the eye of his affections & a skeleton-cowboy foe in the throws of passion. ¡Escándalo!
Artists' Note: This silly little number still brings me a smile to look at. As often happens for these shows, I actually purpose-created this illustration layout to suit the wonderful vintage thrift-store frame that you see pictured. The most unique part being the lovely round mat-border. I think the layout is still pretty fun in a standard square format but it's cool for me to think about how a serendipitous op shop find played a role in the creation of this artwork.
While the round mat border, fancy vintage-framed version from the show (pictured) has sold, fancy, high-quality art prints are now available to purchase for as little as 25 'bones', worldwide postage included!
