"Ancient Aliens" by Reif Myers, Mixed media on Canvas

DETAILS: 78" X 48" Mixed media on Canvas Original Art Work 2021 ARTIST STATEMENT: Reif Myers I am an artist from Perth, Western Australia and currently based in Bali, Indonesia where I am working on new collections. I have been exhibiting and taking commissions for over 10 years now including an international show in Dubai in June 2019 followed by a show in Fremantle later that year.My work is big and colourful, I like to describe the artworks as conversational pieces rather than a glance and walk-by piece of art. I like to use humour and recognisable icons to capture the viewer and the busy-ness draws them in as they then spot new items hidden throughout the piece. The goal with most of my works is for the piece to have the ability to make the viewer laugh and engage in conversation with someone else. My feedback from clients is that the artworks serve as good conversation starters and topic of discussion for dinner parties.I grew up surrounded by colourful wild art, my mother Jo
