    Goldeneye Original Painting Acrylic on Canvas Mounted on Panel by Jordan Mendenhall Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2014 Signed Custom Gold Framed Orginal Painting Artwork Size 23x9 "I’ve always loved Zelda games and other video game classics. Even watching people play video games was magical to me when I was growing up. My older brothers did most of the playing because I was no good, but the games were magical. You could live, adventure, race, fight and make friends in these alternate worlds. I guess that’s why I love video games and art so much till this day. You get to create worlds and live in them and escape from reality. Real-life is stressful and sometimes is too much. I love to escape through my art and video games." - Jordan Mendenhall

Natural Yellowing to Margins. "This is one of my favorite paintings I created years back. Bringing it back to life over 10 years later with these new materials has been a lot of fun. I almost feel like a kid again playing with these neon sharpies florescent paint pens and shining the black light on the print as I work. Once the light is off, these tags hide in plain sight. It's a little silly, but it does feel a bit magical. Each print is unique and one of a kind. I spent time with each one of these, enjoying the process." -Saber This particular piece, the "Last stop Black Light Giclee Print," is described as a favorite of Saber, revived with the employment of new materials. This process seems to have given the artist a rejuvenating, almost childlike joy. Saber’s approach, integrating neon sharpies and fluorescent paint pens, infuses the work with a playful yet elusive quality, where the artfully reveals itself only under the glow of a black light. This feature adds an interactive dimension to the piece. The prints' unique characteristic of hiding 'tags' in plain sight when not illuminated speaks to the clandestine nature of graffiti culture. Limited to a series of 35, each print has been signed and numbered, indicating a high level of exclusivity and collectibility. The detail of natural yellowing around the margins of the hand-deckled fine art paper contributes to the authenticity of each piece, suggesting a deliberate embrace of the natural aging process and reflecting the often ephemeral nature of street art. The size of the artwork, 23x17.5 inches, provides a generous canvas for Saber’s vibrant work, allowing the intricate details and the contrast between the fluorescent and the dark elements to stand out. The production of the piece in 2023 marks it as a contemporary artifact of street art's ongoing evolution, encapsulating both the history and the current state of the movement. Saber’s connection and time spent on each print ensures that while the edition is limited, no two pieces are exactly alike, each bearing the unique touch of the artist’s hand.

Black Graffiti Street Pop Artwork

Depth and Dimension: The Role of Black in Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork

Black as a Powerful Medium in Urban Art

Black, a color that can be both the absence of light and the amalgamation of all pigments in the art world, holds a fundamental place in the street pop art and graffiti genres. Its multifaceted and profound use provides depth, contrast, and definition. In the hands of artists, black is not merely a color; it's an essential component of visual storytelling that can convey various themes and emotions, from the stark and severe to the rich and sophisticated.

Techniques Embracing the Intensity of Black

The techniques used to apply black in urban artwork are as diverse as the artists themselves. It can be found in the sharp lines of stencils that cut through the noise of colorful backdrops or in the swirling shadows that give murals a sense of life and movement. Black often outlines figures and shapes, making them pop from their surroundings and granting them an arresting visual clarity. In addition, the texture of black paint or ink can range from a matte finish that absorbs light, creating a void-like effect, to a glossy sheen that suggests a sleek, modern aesthetic. Culturally, black carries significant weight. It can symbolize rebellion or conformity, chaos or order, nothingness, or the complex integration of all that is colorful. In street pop art and graffiti, black is commonly associated with the underground, the edgy, and the avant-garde. It is the color of the night, the urban, and the unknown. Black's ability to make other colors stand out while still commanding its presence makes it a powerful tool for artists seeking to challenge norms and make bold statements.

Compositional Balance and Boldness with Black

In composition, black's role is unparalleled. It offers an anchor within the artwork, a point of return for the eye amidst the visual excitement of brighter hues. Using black can balance a piece, adding a sense of stability and grounding. However, it also has the power to dominate, to turn a multicolored mural into a monochromatic statement, or to bring a sense of solemnity and gravity to street pop art and graffiti pieces. The future of black in street pop art and graffiti artwork looks as solid as the color itself. As urban art continues to evolve, the applications and symbolism of black are likely to deepen and diversify. New materials and methods will expand the range of textures and finishes available to artists, from the blackest blacks that absorb nearly all light to reflective surfaces that play with the urban environment's illumination. In street pop art and graffiti, black is a foundational element, a color as essential as the spaces it adorns. It is a color that speaks in whispers and shouts, a color that refuses to be silent, and a color that, paradoxically, brings the vibrant world of urban art to life. Whether used with precision or with wild abandon, black remains a testament to the enduring power and versatility of color in the hands of those who seek to transform the cityscape into a canvas of personal expression and public engagement.
