The Cavalry Above The Clouds Original Acrylic Painting by Ben Kehoe One of a Kind Artwork on Wood Board by Street Art Pop Artist. 2013 Signed Acrylic Original Painting Size 20x16 Ready To Hang Ben Kehoe The Cavalry Above The Clouds Original Acrylic Painting 2013 The 2013 original acrylic painting The Cavalry Above The Clouds by American artist Ben Kehoe stands as a striking example of narrative imagination within contemporary Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork. Created on wood board and measuring 20 x 16 inches, this one-of-a-kind hand-painted piece blends surreal fantasy with symbolic undertones, demonstrating Kehoe’s signature ability to balance storytelling, humor, and social reflection through painterly technique. Signed by the artist and ready to hang, the work encapsulates the spirit of modern pop surrealism while remaining deeply rooted in the visual language of folk and street-influenced art. Imagery and Composition Set against a glowing orange sky filled with sweeping clouds, the painting depicts a lone figure riding a massive bald eagle through the heavens. The eagle, rendered in meticulous detail with layered feathers and a stern gaze, exudes both majesty and power. The rider, modest in scale and dressed in muted tones, grips the reins with a sense of calm determination, suggesting a symbolic partnership between human courage and natural strength. The backdrop’s warm tonal gradient evokes both serenity and tension — a dreamlike atmosphere that merges the mythic with the contemporary. The juxtaposition of the enormous bird of prey and the tiny rider introduces themes of freedom, dominance, and the pursuit of transcendence. Symbolism and Thematic Interpretation In The Cavalry Above The Clouds, Ben Kehoe explores the intersection between power and vulnerability, suggesting a narrative of human ambition soaring beyond earthly constraints. The eagle, long a symbol of freedom and national identity, becomes here a vessel for introspection rather than patriotism. The rider’s presence evokes the individual’s quest for control amid vast, unpredictable forces — an allegory for humanity’s ongoing negotiation with nature and self-determination. The painting’s surreal yet deliberate tone reflects Kehoe’s approach to allegorical storytelling, transforming fantastical imagery into layered social and psychological commentary. Ben Kehoe’s Artistic Vision Ben Kehoe, an American painter associated with the pop surrealist movement, is celebrated for his intricate narratives that blend humor, melancholy, and the absurd. His art often features anthropomorphic figures and fantastical scenes that mirror human emotion through metaphor and symbolism. Working primarily with acrylics on wood, Kehoe achieves a textural warmth and painterly precision that connect his work to both folk traditions and contemporary street-influenced aesthetics. The Cavalry Above The Clouds embodies his signature fusion of narrative depth and visual allure, offering a window into an imagined world where the boundaries between myth and modernity dissolve — a hallmark of Street Pop Art & Graffiti Artwork at its most contemplative and poetic.

Wolf Like Me Original Painting Acrylic on Mixed-Media Reclaimed Wood Panel by Bask Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. “The esthetic of my work is similar to the Detroit landscape. The re-purposed nature of my art plays off of panels, wood, signs, that once were proudly displayed. But over the years they stopped serving their intended purpose and thrown out. The inspiration behind the work I made for this show was Detroit's strengths, struggles, and landscape. I took the opportunity to move to Detroit fourteen years ago, but for a number of reasons beyond my control, my stay lasted only 4 years. However, that was long enough for the city to have a profound impact on my work as well as my consciousness towards social and political issues. And even though I haven't called Detroit home in 9 years, the impression it stamped on me is something I hope I never lose. And it was this appreciation for the influence that DETROIT has had on me, that inspired the work I made for the show.” -Bask

Burned Out Original Hand-Painted Multiple (HPM) on Acrylic on Laser Etched Wood Panel by Derek Hess Graffiti Street Artist Modern Pop Art. 2016 Signed & Numbered Limited Edition of 50 Burnt Wood & Acrylic on Wood Panel Artwork Size 20x10 Ready To Display "This 'Burned Out' is burned or etched into the wood, the red on the arms I laid down with a wire brush, I worked fast with the crude tools to keep the feel consistent with the rest of the piece. The first laser-etched piece done with 1xRUN, Hemorrhage, came out so nice and true to the original that another one would be cool to try. Burned Out was a no-brainer, it's burned out.. What is cool about these pieces is they are all part of an edition, all the figures are handled the same, so it is a true edition. But at the same time, each one is unique because the red is different on everyone. What I find very cool about this piece is you get a unique one of a kind signed and numbered edition print, it's the best of both worlds." - Derek Hess
