Size:29 x 35 in.
This original painting by Paul Normansell, titled "Queen of Hearts," measures 22 x 28 inches and is crafted with meticulous precision using high gloss enamel paint on metal. Normansell's iconic style shines through in this vibrant portrait of a young Queen Elizabeth II, set against a playful, heart-filled background in bold colours. Each heart drips with colour, adding an urban pop art aesthetic that contrasts beautifully with the regal, grayscale depiction of the queen, which is composed entirely of carefully painted individual dots.
Using his trademark technique, Normansell applies each dot freehand, creating a smooth, glossy finish that reflects light, adding a magazine-like sheen to the piece. His process, which involves hundreds of hours of painstakingly detailed work on a horizontal aluminium surface, allows each dot to dry precisely without sagging or running, showcasing his dedication to perfection.
"Queen of Hearts" exemplifies Normansell’s ability to blend cultural symbols with modern art techniques, creating works that resonate in both the art and fashion worlds. This captivating portrait encapsulates the artist’s skill and patience while paying tribute to the iconic strength and poise of its subject.
