An original oil on canvas by popular artist Hamish Blakely.
Combining contemporary with classic, this figurative painting illustrates Hamish's mastery of the female form. Swathed in the Union Jack flag, this sultry goddess is ready for her selfie!
Inspired by women's power and beauty, Hamish's artworks hint at deeper, primal forces. Using a rich colour palette, he paints with finesse while creating a tactile surface achieved with layer upon layer of heavily-applied pigment. Like in this piece, he often includes elements of modern culture, including social media.
Hamish says: "They say the camera never lies, but it can misrepresent in the blink of a shutter. Perhaps our grand Britannia knows the deeper truth but she is happy to play the game."
