The irrepressible Billy Connolly returns with the latest instalment of his Born on a Rainy Day collection, this time with coloured interpretations of six of his most celebrated images.
By introducing a spectrum of colour to some of his most beloved artworks, Billy expresses his love for creativity and originality, encouraging us all to embrace our individuality, no matter what.
Billy’s joy for life is clear and infectious in this collection. As we see the figures playing music, dancing and expressing their unique style, Billy gives us an insight into some of the most nostalgic moments throughout his life and career.
Whether it’s hearing the pulsing sound of bagpipers lining the streets at the Edinburgh Fringe, the blossoming relationship with his art or the magical light of the Scottish gloaming, each piece reveals life through Billy’s eyes, while inviting the viewer to enjoy it in a way that’s true to them.
Featured Art: 'Big Close Up'. A Hand-signed double Hit Flatbed Giclée Limited Edition by Billy Connolly.
Originally sketched in black and white, Billy’s reimagination of these artworks illustrates the continuing evolution of his unique signature style.
Although his figures are faceless, they still manage to possess an extraordinary self-awareness and humanity, whilst their anonymity opens them up to individual interpretation, creating a unique bond with the viewer.
Described by The Times as 'poignant', 'funny' and 'enigmatic', Billy’s highly collectible prints and stainless-steel sculptures are as amusing as his comedy.
Communicating his humour through shapes and lines, it was on a rainy day in 2007 that Billy first put pen to paper. Taking refuge from the grey drizzle of Montreal, Canada, he entered an art shop with a twinkling curiosity and left with an armful of supplies and the urge to create. Over the next five years his drawings developed into his debut fine art collection, Born on a Rainy Day, which launched in 2012 and continues to connect with collectors today.
