Urban Pop art in your own home by cult artist Sly.

These are not prints as each is individually done and signed to order and consequently vary a little from the illustrated picture. These paintings are sprayed onto canvas. 20 mm thick and ready to hang.

It is likely that Juan Sly has become the biggest seller of original artworks in the UK. An artist exhibiting in mainly spray stencils and oils. He has exhibited at the Saatchi (a proper gallery with pillars and everything!) alongside the likes of Banksy, Terry O'Neil, Tracy Emin and Vic Reeves and now has a permanent collections at the Cut-Up in Germany, Detroit to a gallery opposite the Tate alongside Damien Hirst and some other artists you might of heard of plus private collections around the globe. His works rock from humour to anti-war, sex to surreal. Particularly fond of the stencil medium as it allows him to quickly respond to events and ideas and gives the work that gritty illegal look. The stencils naturally allow the works to be resprayed and so become affordable and disposable. He likes the fact that people can buy art that they like and not to show off how much they can afford. You can find them in bedsits, legal offices in the Temple or stuck to a fence in Bristol.

Juan Sly is an Urban Pop Art artist who primarily expresses himself through spray stencils and oils. He derives inspiration from both contemporary and past popular culture images, skillfully melding them to form fresh and thought-provoking concepts for today's audience. His artwork oscillates between seriousness and playfulness, often combining both elements in his captivating creations. His artworks encompass a wide spectrum, ranging from humorous to anti-war, from sex to surreal themes.

Currently, he has a particular fondness for the stencil medium as it allows him to swiftly respond to current events and infuse his works with a raw, edgy appearance reminiscent of underground art. The stencils also enable the artworks to be replicated easily, making them more affordable and accessible. Through this approach, he strives to create art that is inclusive and inviting, catering to those who feel alienated by the elitism and exclusivity often associated with traditional art galleries. As a result, he faces criticism and disapproval from the "Art Police" and those who uphold the conventional art world.
