Contemporary Fine Art Work From Renowned Artists. Artwork size: 28 x 38 inches. Framed size: 33 x 43 inches. Limited Edition Glazed Box Canvas. Publisher: DeMontfort Fine Art. Stunning statement piece by Nick Holdsworth. This modern classic of Prince will make any large wall look stunning! It’s All About The Detail. Nick’s creative process is both playful and complex, and informs the entire message of each powerful portrait. Initially Nick works digitally, composing extremely detailed and intricate monotone mosaics of his chosen subject. These comprise of different sized square repeated graphics that sit directly over heavily pixelated imagery; all aligned in perfect symmetry. The different sized repeats are placed in different areas to add depth and focus. They’re large in the background and smaller in the foreground. Frame Size can vary by 1-2 inches. Caring For Your Art. Nick cites himself as one of the first designer T-shirt label brands building upon the’90s obsession with psychedelic images and youth culture. He has also worked on collaborations with Levis Red-Japan, Eliminator-Japan, Block 60-Italy, Griffin Studio-UK, and Harvey Nichols. It was Nick’s unique techniques and style that began to gain interest from the art industry and he began to explore ways to express his love of fashion and culture through individual pieces of fine art. His background in design meant his digital skills opened a world of possibilities to him, and after years of experimentation, he is now producing breath taking mixed -media pieces based around these interests. Once he has chosen an image to work with, he will manipulate it using a pixilation process, this is a technique that requires vigilant control over the placement for each individual pixel (of which there are hundreds for each image). The pixilation is then overlaid with Nick’s chosen repeated icon, often a famous brand logo, which he identifies for its association with the chosen subject. An example of this is his Kate Moss portrait; this was based on a photo shoot she did for Playboy Magazine, so the graphic Nick chose to work with was the playboy bunny. Nick then adjusts the scale of these icons to enhance the definition to the overall subject and finishes by using airbrush and inks to add colour and tone to the painting, thereby introducing a hand finished and original element to each piece. This thoroughly modern, cutting edge process contrasts with the nostalgic nature of the images, which Nick says are inspired by the musical legends of his youth, and the hours spent flicking through his mother’s fashion magazines as a child. This unexpected combination imbues the pieces with emotional depth, occasional wit, and a surprisingly vintage style for something so contemporary. Freddie Mercury’s sister and Brian May both hold Nick’s portraits of Freddie in their private collections. Ideally try to avoid hanging your artwork in direct sunlight, above a working fireplace, or in a damp area. When cleaning, never use water or commercial cleaners – always use a dry cloth, and handle the artwork with extreme care to avoid creating fingerprints, dents or creases. Lighting your art is really a matter of taste. Contemporary fashion dictates general good lighting which will wash over the walls of a room and display all paintings to advantage without damaging them with ultra violet rays or direct heat.
