Cleon Peterson • Virgins, by kember on Dec 27, 2016 10:36:58 GMT 1, I picked one of these up thanks to this thread, been toying with picking up a Cleon that isn't overly violent and this fits the brief.
The thread originally linked to an Instagram post that for some reason Cleon has deleted.

Lol! You do realize it's an image depicting a victorious combatant on his galoping horse running over slaughtered bodies laying in their blood with weapons still stuck in their neck and chest, do you?
Even by Cleon standards, I just don't see how this could be described as a "softie" by any means..

haha yeah very true, for some reason though i just think this is aesthetically less violent, there's no gruesome dismemberment or central act of violence.

And because i never went for the Red option Before, I decided to do so this time.

Yes. The message behind the image is more power than destruction. It gave me more the feeling of hope, victory, power. Than the moment of violence and death that occurred before this, which is usually the case with Cleons Prints. And because i never went for the Red option Before, I decided to do so this time. |

Semantics but I think when one says "don't get" - a polite way of saying "don't like"!!

Cleon Peterson • Virgins, by Amber Halo on Jan 1, 2017 22:08:17 GMT 1, I think the same can be said of scores of artists, some of whom have achieved great fame and some of whom have faded into obscurity. I think an artist resonates with you or they don't. And that's fine. I think it would be boring otherwise.
Who defines what makes an artist or particular movement of work great, and how they go about defining that? That can be an elusive chore trying to answer.
Buy what you like. It's going to live with you.

...and gone again - compared to his body of work, it is fascinating to me how this particular image is any "darker" than others; different strokes and all that jazz I guess -
