Peppy Colours - Pops Of Colour And Imagination.

Peppy Colours by Pepe Bratanov.

Peppy Colours is a pop art exploration of the unexpected fun and beauty that can be found in the everyday objects and living things that surround us.

It’s mostly cultural observations and reflections of all the things that happen around us every day - from local culture and things I may have encountered throughout the day to visual commentary on current global events and behaviours. So it could be something small or really big. It really varies, but the connective tissue is always colour and simplicity. I find that realizing a complicated subject through simplicity is in most cases very rewarding and visually intriguing.

This project started as being mainly a hobby, something I can do on the side, a streamlined outlet that allows me to take a break from all the other creative projects I have on the go. It’s more of a colourful escape for me really. I try not to overthink the concept too much, keep it light, do it quickly. Sometimes the pieces are even created while I’m sitting on the couch and watching Netflix. Basketball, butterflies and elephants are reoccurring themes in my art. I just have a soft spot for them. And pastel colours.

The purpose behind the art is to put a smile on someone’s face. The same way I clear my head while creating the art, I want the viewers to take a brief moment from their busy everyday lives and clear their heads. Nothing too deep or meaningful in most cases. Just a quick, enjoyable, snack-sized visual break. Though, we are all different and some people find their own deeper meanings and interpretations with some of the pieces. Which is always nice to hear. After all that’s exactly what art is supposed to do.
