SHEPARD FAIREY - WAVE OF DISTRESS

SHEPARD FAIREY - WAVE OF DISTRESS Artist: Shepard Fairey Title: WAVE OF DISTRESS SIGNED OFFSET LITHOGRAPH 24 x 36 inches. Offset Lithograph on thick cream Speckle Tone paper. Signed by Shepard Fairey. Note from Artist: I first illustrated the Dark Wave piece in 2010 as a response to the BP spill in the Gulf of Mexico. I made some fine art pieces of the image that I liked even more than the screen prints and decided Id like to release an offset of the fine art version. I am releasing this both because I like the image, and because unfortunately, the environmental hazards of off-shore drilling are just as relevant today as they were in 2010, especially with the relaxed regulations under the new administration. I enjoy doing illustrations of water with its hypnotic ripples and reflections. Theres oil in this water, which mixes ok in an illustration, but not so well in real life. I want future generations to inhabit a livable planet.
