From the Shadows; Mars Attacks! ... by Mark Braithwaite
The Little Green Men arrive in Yorkshire!
Special thanks to the artist's daughter for the idea behind this fun painting.
Inspired by 1950s sci-fi, Mark has painted an invasion of spaceships, beaming up the locals into a bright green sky.
Following on from the success of his 'Zombie Apocalypse' series, Gallery Resident Artist Mark Braithwaite has expanded the range to create the 'From the Shadows' collection, of other supernatural beings and mystical happenings. York is the most haunted city in Europe after all, so he's not short of inspiration!
Mark tells us "This is the latest in my fun series of spooky illustrations, 'From the Shadows' painted in watercolour and mixed media. In the sky I have used Schminke Horadam Supergranulation watercolours which made the unusual skies happen, and Opal paint, which create an iridescent effect."
The painting has been mounted in a stylish white mount with a black core. The outer mount measures 40x40cm; a standard metric size. The painting can be framed in a wide distressed black wood and glass frame.
Prints are also available.
