“Jojo and Loretta”  40” X 30” X 2” Mixed Media on a Cradled Wood Panel, Framed

“Jojo was a man who thought he was a loner. But he knew it couldn't last” - The Beatles

"Get Back," by The Beatles, has multifaceted interpretations, evolving from a satirical commentary on racial tensions in Britain to a more general expression of longing and return. Initially, the song contained lyrics targeting anti-immigrant sentiments, particularly focusing on Enoch Powell's rhetoric.However, the band later shifted the lyrics to be less specific, focusing on ambiguous characters being told to "Get Back" to where they belong. The song also touches on themes of personal identity and the desire to return to a simpler, perhaps more authentic, self. 

This piece is part of my ongoing exploration of "Faces and Facades," a series of mixed media paintings where people and places intertwine, with architecture serving as a vessel for unseen narratives. Inspired by characters from Beatles songs, each work aims to evoke the stories and emotions hidden beneath the surface, inviting viewers to look beyond the obvious and discover the deeper layers within.

This painting is also available as a canvas print and a hand-embellished print.

My mixed media paintings consist of acrylic paint and digital collage. They are painted on museum quality archival paper and then laminated to a cradled wood panel, varnished, waxed and then framed in a black floater frame.
