Description
"I Saw Elvis at the Krispee Kreem", 20" x 15" plus decorated frame....There have been a number of artists renowned for their Elvis artwork. Names like Ger Rijff, Nate Giorgio and Betty Harper spring immediately to mind. Another less well known (at least in the Elvis world), but highly successful artist on the world scene, is Kata Billups.Kata's works are fascinating contemporary depictions of Elvis and other cultural icons. With a strong conceptual basis, they stimulate one's senses through their broad mix of eclectic contemporary visual depiction, rich colors, shape, and use of thematic elements. A number of Kata's artworks also offer an incisive social commentary through their visual representation, and many reflect a strong 'folk art' element.A wide range of justified adjectives have been used to describe Kata's art, including: "inventive"; visually resplendent"; "exciting" and "sublime". They are simply incredibly stunning.Kata's works are appreciated worldwide and her original pieces of artwork now sell for between ten thousand and hundreds of thousands of dollars.In addition to her "originals" Kata also makes available what she calls "replica originals" (Note: these are originals in their own right!) at a more affordable price. Less than two years ago, Kata' "replica originals" were selling for hundreds of dollars. As Kata's name and sublime contemporary art pieces have become widely recognised, today her "replica artworks" are often selling for thousands of dollars.About the Artist: Kata obtained her Master of Fine Arts in Painting from the Winthrop University in South Carolina and has been a working artist now for over thirty years. She has sold her work in venues across the USA and Europe for many years during which time she has gained thousands of collectors. Many celebrities also collect Kata's art work. The list of celebrities includes Susan Sarandon, Tim Burton, Randy Quaid, Trisha Yearwood and Julia Roberts.Kata's website and eBay store are called Rock and Roll Icon Art and apart from Elvis you will find the artist's works based around The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Jesus and other cultural icons.
