  • Non-Volley Zone II Original Acrylic Painting by Dave Pollot Non-Volley Zone II Original Acrylic Painting by Dave Pollot

    Dave Pollot Non-Volley Zone II Original Acrylic Painting by Dave Pollot

    Non-Volley Zone II Original Acrylic Painting by Dave Pollot One-of-a-kind Artwork on Vintage Canvas Framed by Street Art Pop Artist. 2022 Signed Acrylic on Original Pickleball Paddle Reclaimed Vintage Painting Size 23x18 Including Frame. Framed Ready To Hang In a unique blend of classical artistry and contemporary wit, "Non-Volley Zone II" emerges as a prime example of Dave Pollot's vision, where vintage aesthetics meet modern narratives. This original acrylic painting showcases Pollot's signature style of repurposing thrift art, introducing unexpected modern elements to otherwise traditional canvases. Created in 2022, this work features a charming still life that has been playfully disrupted by the addition of a pickleball paddle, a modern sports reference that Pollot has cleverly incorporated into the scene. At the heart of this piece is Pollot's mastery in combining two seemingly disparate worlds. The artist breathes new life into a reclaimed vintage painting by juxtaposing the timeless beauty of a floral arrangement with the unexpected intrusion of a pickleball paddle lying at the forefront, symbolizing perhaps the collision of past and present or the intrusion of the contemporary into the serene stillness of history. The playful inclusion of the paddle is a nod to his keen eye for pop culture references, making the artwork resonate with a sense of humor and relevance. The canvas size, at a notable 23x18 inches framed, allows viewers to immerse themselves in the textural contrasts and vivid colors that Pollot masterfully preserves and enhances. His work is not merely about altering the old. Still, it is a dialogue between the original artist and himself, creating a layered narrative where every brushstroke is a word in a story that spans generations. "Non-Volley Zone II" is more than just an acrylic painting; it is a one-of-a-kind artwork that showcases Pollot's ability to transform forgotten pieces of art into contemporary conversations. This framed piece, ready to hang, carries the hallmark of Pollot's ingenuity and serves as a testament to the evolving nature of art. Through such pieces, Pollot establishes himself not just within the realm of street and pop art but also as a custodian of the past, repurposing it to speak to the present.

    Saber Laststop Black Light Giclee Print by Saber

    Laststop Black Light Giclee Print by Saber Artwork Limited Edition Print on Hand Deckled Fine Art Paper Graffiti Pop Street Artist. 2023 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 35 Artwork Size 23x17.5. 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.

Brown & Tan Color Graffiti Street Pop Artwork

Subtle Impact Brown & Tan in Street Pop Art and Graffiti Artwork

Understanding Brown & Tan's Place in Urban Art

Tan, a color often associated with subtlety and earthiness, is uniquely positioned in the palette of street pop art and graffiti artwork. It is a hue that can go almost unnoticed yet is integral in creating a piece that resonates with realism and warmth. In urban art, tan is not the shout but the whisper that draws the viewer closer, a subtle nod to the natural amidst the concrete.

Earthy Presence of Brown in Urban Artistry

Brown, the color of earth, wood, and stone, carries with it an organic essence that is often injected into the urban art scene. In street pop art and graffiti artwork, brown is employed for its natural connotations and its ability to evoke a sense of stability and resilience. With its myriad shades from tan to chocolate, this color brings a grounding effect to urban art's often vibrant and chaotic world, offering a visual reprieve and a connection to the natural world. 

Artistic Applications of Brown's Varied Tones

Artistically, brown is a versatile player in the color palette of street artists and pop art creators. It can provide contrast and depth as a backdrop, allowing brighter colors to stand out. In technique, brown can be layered to create a textured effect reminiscent of natural surfaces or applied in smooth, flat areas for a solid and unyielding presence. The tactile qualities of brown paint, whether in a matte finish that absorbs light or a gloss that adds a touch of sheen, contribute significantly to the physicality and emotional resonance of the artwork.

Symbolism and Cultural Significance of Brown

In cultural symbolism, brown communicates honesty, reliability, and the foundational elements of life. Street pop art and graffiti often utilize brown to represent the urban environment—bricks, dirt, and decaying infrastructure. It's a color that can speak of the grit and the grind, the city's underbelly that is as authentic as it is overlooked. Brown's earthy tones are also symbolic of growth and renewal, a reminder that even in the concrete jungle, the cycle of life continues.

Utilizing Tan in Artistic Expression

In the hands of artists, tan is a color that requires finesse and control. Its muted tones provide a neutral ground upon which bolder colors can emerge with clarity and focus. Tan is often used for shading and giving dimension to images, lending a lifelike quality to street murals and pop art pieces. The ability to layer tan shades over one another can produce an array of textures, simulating everything from sandy surfaces to human skin, making it invaluable for adding detail and depth.

Cultural and Aesthetic Significance of Tan

Tan carries a cultural and aesthetic significance that is both understated and profound. Street pop art and graffiti can evoke a sense of the past, represent the human form, or blend art seamlessly into the urban environment. Tan speaks of the organic, untouched, and serene, countering city life's vibrant, often chaotic energy.

Compositional Strategies Featuring Tan

In terms of composition, tan works as a balancing element. It can soften the visual impact of a piece or serve as a bridge between disparate colors, tying them together in visual harmony. Its use is strategic, often employed by artists to create a sense of cohesion within their work. In the background, tan can recede, allowing other elements to stand out, while in the foreground, it can highlight the intricate details often lost in more vivid colors.
