Early on when starting out my art career I’d try out different tactics to see what works with me and artworks that had meaning to me, I didn’t hit the mark with this but I gave it a go. I created a much smaller artwork named ‘Biggie Original’ that looks just like this. It was really well received with the people around me and they all told me to do another… Advice from people who aren’t selling artists. I gave it a go and made this tryptic which was originally just three seperate artworks and I later combined into one. It wasn’t meaningful to me to just create the same artwork over and over again and it felt very “I’m on sale at the counter at spotlight, decor” so I decided that was bad advice. I do like the artworks though and it was a good learning curve!

This artwork is acrylic, isn’t one of my hand-stretched ones but the “frames” I used are decor prints and the frame is MDF so I market the price lower for all three the artwork was sold with hooks ready to hang and a certificate of authenticity.
