The world-famous musician and comedian’s iconic artworks have no less impact than one of his legendary comedy sketches, with his humour communicated through shapes and lines rather than words. Billy’s art is charmingly simplistic, his faceless figures possess an extraordinary self-awareness and humanity. Devoid of emotion or expression, their anonymity opens them up to individual interpretation, creating a unique bond with the viewer. Billy's initial works were in black and white, but in recent years, he has embraced colour, adding: “There’s more colour in the collection than before. I was looking at the drawings and sometimes they were crying out for colour and I didn’t know why.”
“Now, he's obviously a snake charmer but that's not what he started out as. He started out to be a guy sitting there and I thought 'Oh, he's an Indian snake charmer' and stuck the snake in and then the snake became a woman. it's all part of spending too much time in your own!” says Billy of the exotic piece which has a personal connection. “My great-great-great-grandmother was Indian who married an Irish soldier when she was 12, which I am assured was quite normal at the time.
“I remember when I was in India, near a barracks up in the hill country. And in the morning, we were awakened by the call to prayer. This guy was doing it and he sounded really great, perfectly in tune, and I thought ‘Oh, I'm home’.”
In his unmistakeable style, Connolly reflects both his Scottish background and his current life in Florida, where he creates these fantastic pieces. With the comic’s brilliant sense of humour, this collection will resonate even more deeply with collectors given the personal sentiment of this release – the artworks see Connolly recalling his Glasgow childhood, living in the Scottish countryside and a bit of Scots history alongside an insight into his favourite hobby, fishing, as practiced near his Florida home.
Hand-signed by The Big Yin himself, ‘The Charmer’ will add a bold and humorous touch of musical and comedic history to your home. This piece is a Double Hit Flatbed Giclée Print on 100% Cotton Aquarelle Arches - Torchon 300gsm displayed on 2mm Float Glass.
This piece can also be purchased as part of an unframed or framed set.
