‘Brotherly’ 36x48” Mixed Media Painting

Brotherly is the third painting created in DrainedEye’s Escapades Series — a body of work that expands elements from his iconic skulls into larger, surreal compositions. Painted in mixed media on a 36”x48” stretched canvas, the piece layers symbols of spirit, city, and pop culture into a dreamlike whole.

The Philadelphia skyline anchors the composition, rising among skeletal elements, spirits, lips, and eyes. Unexpected imagery punctuates the scene: the top of Bart Simpson’s head, the electric chip of the Bugasphere, and the presence of multiple Sparkies. Each detail adds to the painting’s playful yet spiritual energy, inviting the viewer into a layered adventure of vision and meaning.
