Watered-Down Heroism
Following my last post which featured art that reconceptualised punk rockers as superheroes, comes a post featuring superheroes portrayed in gorgeous watercolour paintings. French artist Blule knows how to wield a paintbrush, as confirmed below. The overall minimalism of the pieces, in conjunction with the restrained spatter and drip effects, produces some incredibly striking, sure-to-be-iconic imagery.
Unfortunately, Blule seems to have encountered some fuckeries with Marvel’s legal department which prevents her from selling prints of her stunning artistry, so let’s hope Marvel’s lawyers come to their senses soon because, much like the punk-rocker-as-superhero images, I’d love some of these both on shirts and on prints.
