This painting is characteristic of the artist’s use of acrylic paint with found materials and in his style of using drips and swirls of paint. It is signed across the bottom front (Cyrstoper), which is his signature on all works of art.

Painted on heavy bead board. Naturally, it could be framed. Presently, the artist placed two small holes towards the top, when Shoemaker hung this painting by wire in front of a window. That is an option and so is having it framed.

Shoemaker started painting in 2000. Inspired by the late street artist, Purvis Young from Florida. Shoemaker started by taking found materials and began painting on whatever looked good to paint on. His work immediately took off. Shortly thereafter, his paintings began being collected worldwide. In fact, he had several one man exhibitions at the gallery in Cathedral City, CA known as Colin Fisher Studios. (See a photo of the artist in the photos provided).

This painting would make a nice addition to any art collector of his work or by anyone liking this work of art. See less
