Lola Gomez - Crazy (XL)

THE STORY BEHIND “Crazy”

Every painting in my studio is born from music. And in my studio, music means a CD or a record, never a playlist. No skipping, no algorithm, no next song chosen for me. I put an album on, I stop thinking, and I stay inside one mood long enough for it to end up on the canvas.

“Crazy” came out of a night with Seal’s self-titled debut on repeat. That song holds this tension the whole way through, something serious underneath that keeps threatening to break loose. You can see it on the canvas too, all that dark olive pulled tight until colour bursts through the edges, like it couldn’t stay contained any longer. Like all my work, it carries the title of the song that shaped it.

I PAINT LOUD.

Colour is my language, and I don't use it quietly. Layers of acrylic built up with palette knives and brushes, so the surface has texture you want to touch. Energy first, warmth second, and a little melancholy hiding in between.

Collected around the world

My paintings live with collectors worldwide, in homes, studios and offices where people wanted colour that actually says something. This one is ready to join them.
