Lacrima Nigra: The Viscous Vigil
This artwork, a compelling addition to the "I put an eye on you" series, presents a hyper-realistic, close-up portrayal of a single eye. The iris is a piercing, luminous cerulean blue, rendered with intricate detail that captures light and depth, drawing the viewer into its intense focus. Contrasting sharply is the heavy, dramatic black makeup – a bold brow and thick eyeliner defining the eye's shape with stark precision. The extraordinary element arises as this cosmetic shield appears to dissolve and weep. Thick, viscous streams of black liquid, resembling ink or tar, cascade downwards from the lower lash line, staining the warm, neutral-toned skin background. These 'tears' aren't clear and sorrowful but opaque and heavy, splattering slightly as they descend, suggesting a weight beyond simple sadness. The piece masterfully balances intricate beauty with a sense of unsettling decay or emotional overflow. "Lacrima Nigra: The Viscous Vigil" delves into the complexities beneath the surface of perception and presentation. As part of the "I put an eye on you" series, the act of watching and being watched remains central, but here it takes a darker, more burdensome turn. The eye, the traditional 'window to the soul,' is simultaneously captivating with its beauty (the brilliant blue) and guarded (the heavy makeup). The dripping black makeup serves as a powerful metaphor. It represents more than just tears; it's the facade cracking, the carefully constructed artifice melting under the heat of an unyielding gaze – either the subject's own intense vigil or the weight of external scrutiny. These are not tears of pure emotion, but 'Lacrima Nigra' – black tears, suggesting something hidden, perhaps toxic, suppressed, or the messy consequence of maintaining a constant, intense watchfulness. The viscosity speaks to the slowness and heaviness of this emotional or psychological burden, a gradual but undeniable dissolution of composure. The artwork challenges the viewer to consider the cost of seeing and being seen, the fragility masked by intensity, and the point at which the pressure of the vigil becomes too much to bear, spilling out in a dark, undeniable stain. It's a statement on contained intensity breaching its boundaries. Art Print

"Divided Light" is a compelling abstract piece that immediately commands attention with its assertive use of color and form. A field of intense red serves as the foundational energy of the work, a hue often associated with passion, vitality, and even conflict. This vibrant expanse is bisected by a resolute vertical line of deep black, creating a stark and undeniable division across the canvas. This division introduces a powerful tension, suggesting a separation or a boundary between two distinct realms. Counterbalancing this stark linearity is an off-center circular form rendered in luminous gold. This radiant orb becomes a focal point, a concentrated source of light and perhaps representing wholeness, enlightenment, or the potential for unity within the apparent division. The deliberate placement off-axis prevents easy resolution, maintaining a dynamic interplay between the divided field and the unifying shape. Adding another layer of complexity and emotional resonance are rivulets of black paint that cascade downwards from the central black line and the encompassing black ring around the golden form. These drips introduce an element of organic fluidity and the passage of time, hinting at a process of change or perhaps the lingering effects of the initial division. The texture implied by these drips contrasts with the smoother fields of color, adding a tactile dimension to the visual experience.
This artwork delves into the fundamental duality of existence – the interplay between light and darkness, separation and connection, chaos and order. The dominant red can be seen as the raw energy of life, while the bisecting black line represents the inevitable divisions, conflicts, or boundaries we encounter. Yet, within this apparent separation, the golden circle emerges as a symbol of potential wholeness, inner illumination, or the enduring possibility of finding unity amidst discord. Its off-center placement suggests that this unity is not always easily attained or perfectly balanced. The dripping black paint serves as a poignant reminder that these divisions can leave their mark, a flowing testament to the continuous process of transformation and the interconnectedness of seemingly opposing forces. Ultimately, "Divided Light" invites contemplation on how seemingly disparate elements can coexist and influence one another, suggesting that even within division, the radiant potential for light and unity persists.

The paper quality is excellent. Keep in mind when purchasing that the size includes a white border so your print is about smaller than you might expect. The colors are deep and clear. I am really happy with my purchase of the Klimt prints. I purchased 3 of them as a grouping.

I bought this framed print as it reminds me of my cats and the lovely colour green matches my decor. I hesitated when it said perspex not glass but this is a high quality and very clear, really looks great, and I know it's safe hanging above the bed. I am more than pleased with the service and will be ordering again. Thank you
