'Opake One' is the pseudonym of the London born graffiti artist who has built up a significant following over recent years. His first major collection of Original paintings displayed his vision of classic cartoon characters, interspersed with modern themes & street art - we have the last of that white framed series available so do hurry as we are proud to say almost everything is now sold!
**Video of the artist at work 'Graffiti Meets Resin**
Do get in touch if you have any Original or commission needs but please note Opake does now work on larger paintings (and upwards) exclusively, as he feels it best suits his emotive and nuanced artwork.
He loves to experiment with colours, bringing new ideas to traditional childhood heroes and currently works exclusively on much larger commission and installation pieces and is set appear in exhibition in Dubai in the latter part of 2021.
His painting style is unique and has developed over time, blending many modern techniques, and he has been experimenting with graffiti since a rebellious teen!
**A short clip 'Today We Present Opake One' (in French):
Opake has continued to evolve artistically and has happily co-created murals with other graffiti artists. As a young adult he trained as a tattoo artist and it becomes clear where his abilities where forged and his amazing POP art, combined with graffiti ‘tagging' (amongst other elements) developed.
He also has a deep appreciation of Music and his favourite musical artists do influence his paintings - with their lyrics even appearing on his canvases!
