Under My Umbrella

The dark clouds may be gathering overhead yet there’s no such sign of doom and gloom projecting from beneath the impromptu cover which is serving to protect the keen amateur cyclists perfectly positioned ‘Under my Umbrella’. As close as close can be, the two, fellow gadgies make haste on their return to the homestead, intent on remaining as dry as is physically possible given the inclement conditions which are bearing down upon them. This all for one and one for all mentality is pure Alexander Millar from the first signature flourish to the very last, as the much-celebrated contemporary figurative practitioner again demonstrates why he’s held in such high regard by both his peers and fine art collectors near and far. The hugely popular Millar has this enviable knack for being able to bring together characters with such degrees of graphic warmth and illustrative belonging, creative calling cards which pictorially resonate through his every work, with this, his very latest Spring 2016 release being no different to what went before. It won’t surprise you to learn that once more we’re bracing ourselves for another outpouring of love for Millar’s artistry now that this limited edition giclee on paper study has entered the public domain, so with this in mind would politely suggest that those interested in adding to their personal Millar collections don’t ruminate over potential ownership too long.
