My Greatest Adventure (UP) - Canvas Limited Edition

Mark Davies British Artist

£1,195.00

  • Showcasing my interpretation of the wonderful animated movie ‘UP’. What we see is a heaven-like scene where the balloon house is resting just though the clouds and shows the point where Carl has set out to feel closer to Ellie. At this point we see the childhood sweethearts reunited with Carl sensing that his wife’s spirit is with him, depicted by Ellie right next to her husband albeit as an angel.

    Look closely and you will see her magical trail that comes from Paradise Falls from where she has flown to him from. I didn’t want to create something that looked the same as what you see to date but to instead amplify the emotion connected with the couple and to show the two reunited. All of the details that flutter in the sky all depict this sense of being free and the spirit of adventure, from the subtle light details to the butterflies. (The falling white feathers represent those from someone who has passed, finding their way down to a loved one who seeks comfort.

A Letter To Aunt Lucy (Paddington Bear) - Canvas Limited Edition

£1,295.00

  • My interpretation of the wonderfully British Paddington Bear! What we see sadly is a heartbreaking image of the little bear down and out, sat in a stairwell looking lonely and lost, desperate for his Aunt Lucy. How could this now be his existence after being surrounded by so much love, intrigue and comfort?

    All good things have to come to an end don’t they? Is this self-inflicted or caused by another? You’ll notice his upturned hat that has caught the generosity and pity of strangers on hearing Paddington play a little tune on his trumpet, a gift from Uncle Pastuzo. Is he trying to collect money for Marmalade or simply for the postage for his letter to Aunt? There are subtle details surrounding his case that remind you that he is just a boy, scrawled letters that pour light onto his troubles and frustration.

    The lovely quality with this piece is that it is open-ended leaving you to decide on the reasons and also what is in that letter. As with my way of working there is always hope and in this case you can see this shining towards the little man from out of view, look a little harder and there is a subtle detail that might change things completely. My intention along with creating an authentic piece that fans of Paddington will love is to make you think, to consider who the person was and could / should be if given a helping hand towards recovery, one step at a time.

BALBOA (Rocky) - Canvas Limited Edition

£1,195.00

  • ‘BALBOA’ was my first piece where I work with smoke detail to create a silhouetted character and I am so pleased by the results. Rather than the static and stark silhouettes that are typical I have strived to inject movement and depth into mine through using the smoke textures. I love how it flows, expanding and contracting to take the shape of the body.

    The image of Rocky is so incredibly iconic and exists in so many variants so I was keen on going at this in a different way. Through using the smoke-like textures to create the body it gives off this wonderful ghost-like quality that is perfect for my ‘Lost In Hollywood’ series where we consider the characters from the film that are left behind once the filming stops and the lights go out.

    The USA flag has been depicted within the body through the red white and blue and the stars whilst hints of the cityscape form the background. I wanted to do something that was really gritty where the smoke represents the downtown Philadelphia element whilst in contrast the stars and lighting signify the bright lights of the arena  and the fame that Rocky found.

    1. Released: 2020
