I love the effect Ritzen achieves by smearing vibrant emulsion onto the human figure.
American stereotypical imagery is the core of each project, ranging from Diner Girls, Cops, Pin-up Girls and, of course, Fast Food.
The gloopy paint acts like a thick blanket over the figures and somehow draws in the eye to examine the teasing texture.
The rich colours Ritzen uses really add to the glutenous feel, and kind of make me want to go and eat lots of fast food. Strange.
I particularly like the below images. The transition from white to vivid colour is a change composition in most art works, so it achieves a bigger impact at first glance.
