Relying on a trippy palette of neon pink and blue hues, the Seattle-based artist depicts interactions between vibrant flora and fauna against gloomy backgrounds, creating truly exciting pieces that are absurdist yet warm and familiar.
Weldon frequently combines melancholic tones with his flamboyant humor, and he does it like no one else. His paintings generate a sense of sweet nostalgia for something that never existed, something perhaps seen in a lucid dream, and this powerful experience easily hooks the viewer’s imagination and emotions. Among his favorite subjects are women and cats, represented amid strikingly gorgeous sceneries.
