The Surreal Las Vegas Infused Art of Michael Godard
![](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://www.michaelgodard.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Blackjack-Pimps1.jpg)
I wanted to share one of my favourite artists with you. I first stumbled upon Michael Godard while stumbling around a mall near Planet Hollywood on the Las Vegas strip. His surreal martini olives and playing cards make for a fantastic and exotic souvenir beyond what you can find in all the other gift shops. Apparently his new gallery can be found in the Rio casino and resort which is just off the main strip.
Here is a snippet from Michael's bio:
Michael Godard is known as the explosive “Rockstar of the Art World” and global top selling artist!His world of art invites us to see his lighthearted perspective, surrounding us with animated olives, grapes, and dancing strawberries. His unique portrayal of fun is an exciting combination of imagination and subtle humor, evoking the creative side in “Olive” us. He has redefined art as we know it and, of course, given it a punch line.
His paintings are thought provoking and full of enigmatic illusion. They show pain, love, conflict, and success, making people smile, laugh, reminisce, and exclaim, “Oh My God..ard!”
Godard’s work is highly collected by young and old from all walks of life including movie stars, rock stars and private collectors. “We both love to see people respond to our art and it’s probably why we’ve been given a gift to create and entertain. Get ready to go crazy over the artwork of Michael Godard” -Ozzy Osbourne. Godard’s imaginative world of art is seen by millions of people each month, worldwide through cruise lines, galleries, hotels, television, magazines and countless merchandising kiosks and stores. His paintings even adorn the walls of the Officer’s Lounge in the Pentagon.
Enough already with the text let's showcase some of his iconic work already. Here are some of my favourites and you can find a link to much more of his work at the bottom of the post.
