Original Artwork by Martin Coyle – 15x11" Acrylic & Paint Marker on Coldpress Watercolor Paper
This vibrant and surreal composition by outsider artist Martin Coyle bursts with energy, color, and raw expression. Created with acrylic paint and paint markers on sturdy coldpress watercolor paper, the piece measures 15 x 11 inches and carries Coyle’s unmistakable style: bold outlines, playful distortions, and layered symbolism.
The central figure’s split face—half green, half orange—emerges against a radiant yellow and deep blue backdrop. Multiple eyes float across the visage, suggesting heightened perception, while exaggerated teeth and lips evoke both humor and tension. Details like the heart and crescent moon on the shirt add a dreamlike, almost comic quality, balancing intensity with charm.
Signed by the artist, this one-of-a-kind work embodies Coyle’s commitment to unfiltered creativity and his unique ability to merge raw emotion with bright, engaging palettes. Perfect for collectors of contemporary outsider and pop-surrealist art, this piece will command attention in any space.
