Original Artwork
Polychrome mixed-media reinterpretation inspired by a cultural or photographic reference. Through strong color contrasts, layered textures, and dynamic compositions, the work reshapes the initial source into a Polychrome visual language.
ARTIST: Jean-Michel BASQUIAT, among my favourite artists...
In the book "Life doesn't frighten me", Dr. Maya Angelou's unforgettable poem is matched with the daring art of Jean-Michel Basquiat in this powerful ode to courage.
Angelou's brave, defiant poem celebrates the courage within each of us, young and old.
It also defines Jean-Michel Basquiat, as for me.
Acrylic painting on canvas, varnish. Main character painted with brushes, no stencil.
Original photo credit: unknown. If the photographer identifies themselves, I will gladly credit them.
