Original artwork description:

I have always wanted to paint David Bowie. Bowie inspired me, he told me that “different” was good and that we need to break down barriers and communicate directly from the heart, unfiltered. I try and live by these rules and paint by them as well.

I wanted to include in this painting a famous quote by Bowie, words that always propel me. I also wanted to create a background of different colour balls to give the painting the feeling of an abstract world with some balls fading into Bowie while others do not. There is no rule for this pattern as there is no rule for Bowie. It is spontaneous.

Materials used:

oil on canvas
