Description from the seller

For your consideration, probably the best up close painting of Charizard we have ever seen! ...a rare and original hand-painted artwork by internationally acclaimed artist James Dillon Wright, professionally known as Dillon Boy. Renowned for his bold figurative style and signature fusion of graffiti techniques with pop culture iconography and subversive wit.

Artist: Dillon Boy (USA, b. 1979)

Style: Pop Art / Urban Art
Dimensions: 36" x 48" (91,44 × 121.92 cm)

About the Artwork
In this original painting, artist Dillon Boy (DBOY) delivers a powerful, high-impact interpretation of the fire-breathing Charizard dragon, rendered with bold graphic precision and explosive energy. The work is driven by action and intensity, capturing a moment of unleashed force rather than quiet presence.

The composition focuses tightly on the dragon’s head as it exhales a burst of flame, its open jaws and sharp contours creating a sense of forward momentum and confrontation. Saturated oranges, yellows, and deep blues collide against a cool sky-toned background, heightening contrast and visual drama. Halftone textures, thick black outlines, and layered color fields amplify the pop-art sensibility, while flame shapes and directional lines push the composition outward with heat and motion.

Executed using acrylic paint with hand-applied detailing and layered surface treatment, this painting moves beyond character depiction into pure visual impact. It stands as a contemporary statement piece that blends graphic intensity, pop-art influence, and expressive energy, showcasing Dillon Boy’s ability to translate raw power into a bold, collectible image.

About the Artist
Dillon Boy (James Dillon Wright) is recognized as one of the most influential and fastest-rising artists in the online art world. By 2017, he became one of the most researched artists on the internet, with a career spanning over 20 years. A simple Google search unveils a vast archive of his prolific creations, paintings, prints, and collectible works that have captivated a worldwide audience for many years.

His vibrant, multi-layered paintings fuse pop culture, humor, philosophy, and childhood inspirations, blending freedom of expression with streetwise aesthetics. Dillon Boy’s work has been exhibited internationally and reviewed alongside contemporary icons such as Banksy, Shepard Fairey (OBEY), and D*Face.

In 2008, his portrait was featured in TIME Magazine’s Person of the Year, and today his works are held in prominent private and public collections across the globe.

What makes Dillon Boy standalone from other artists is not only his ability to capture the pulse of pop culture, but his fearless drive to reinvent it, transforming nostalgia and rebellion into bold, iconic statements that continue to resonate with new generations of collectors.

A Word From the Artist…
“In my work, I fuse decades of pop, graffiti, and street culture. Sometimes that means experimenting with AI, but it’s never about the machine. It’s still a tool, and I’m the one directing it. Each piece requires skill, vision, and the ability to ask the right questions to shape something authentic. These are experiments in freedom, humor, and storytelling and even though I’ve been doing this for over 35 years every time I pick up the brush I feel like I just started! New series coming soon!! Follow and watch to see what’s next.

Collector’s Note
Dillon Boy is a market-disrupting artist to watch, with rapidly growing demand among international collectors. Acquiring one of his original works now presents an opportunity to secure a piece before he transitions fully into the blue-chip arena. This is a museum-worthy statement piece that embodies the spirit of modern Pop and Urban Art, ideal for both established and emerging collectors. Plenty of artists chase Dillon Boy’s shadow, lifting his subjects, mimicking his moves, even hijacking his pop-culture playground. But copying only underscores the gap-- while they trace the surface, Dillon Boy creates from the inside out. Style isn’t a costume you can wear, it’s DNA. And his can’t be stolen.
