Referencing the iconic Amoco sign of his adopted home in St. Louis, while painting with the gritty, vintage colors and cartoon characters from his childhood in Puerto Rico makes this painting both personal, and playful. As a pop of color in an airy walkway, or as an accent piece in a neutral living space, this painting is sure to bring a bundle of joy into your home.
About Sam Meléndez:
Sam Meléndez combines his love for all things vintage and bright colors from his home, Puerto Rico, in his work. Evidence of his process is an integral component of his paintings, creating an authentic personal narrative alongside the subject he depicts. For this reason, the grit that charcoal marks leave behind and the notes he makes while sketching the pieces are important to the final compositions. "I love the combination of the raw, black and white of the charcoal and bare canvas contrasted with the super bright colors I work with." -
