About this artwork
An original watercolour picture in landscape format, completed in 2021.
Back in the late 1980's, I enjoyed the music of the Bangles, the California based girl group. Myself, as with many of You out there, when younger, could relate to the lyrics of "Manic Monday". Using a large semi-circle to express an awaking world, liberally dotted with small geometric shapes to represent lights going on in households.
At the top of the circle is the menacing… business world, waiting to absorb the unwilling to another manic day.
Comments made, that it looks a bit like Death Star in Star Wars, is in My mind, a compliment indeed.
A bold picture with a lot to say, if You have time to read between the lines.
Take a chance and add it to your collection.
I, Stephen Alpe, a self-taught watercolourist, started painting in watercolours back in 1986. Impressed by the artwork in ornithological books illustrated by artits such as David Reid-Henry. I strived to achieve the same level of excellence, but, where as, Reid Henry made it look like the subjects were about to fly off the page, my initial efforts looked like they had been carved out of stone! I did, in time improve and was able to illustrate a few calendars and magazines. On moving to the UK in 2007, I moved into painting landscapes and news items that caught my imagination. From 2012, I began to notice the works of the street artist Banksy. Other artists that I admire include Wassily Kadinski, Joan Miro and Pol Ledent.
