The Shadow of Heath Ledger

The Shadow of Heath Ledger

£3,500.00

The Shadow of Heath Ledger was one of the first paintings Arabella ever created, over 10 years old this piece has remained modern. The ink black paint against the white canvas is interrupted by sharp red commissures. The Joker is depicted with a sadistic sense of humor, hence the colourful emphasis around the mouth. The canvas is set in a bespoke white frame with a black shadow gap.

The painting seems to reflect the inner turmoil of the character that Heath Ledger so famously played in The Dark Knight. His eyes are sunken and hollow, and his lips are curled in an almost menacing way. It's almost as if he is challenging the viewer, daring them to try and figure out his secret and darkest thoughts. The bold use of colours gives the painting a sense of intensity, as if it carries with it a warning of something sinister lurking beneath the surface.
