Pop Art painting “Romance in Paris” (2025) by Franko, mixed media on canvas

These incredibly cool "Urban Pop" pieces are immersive experiences. With their layers and subtly textured base, they add depth and leave no doubt that this is an original painting, not a lithograph. And the best part? This painting is NEVER sold as a print—it has LIFE! Often painted with a gritty, scribbled look, they capture the urban spirit of street art and lend a distinctive character to any space. The forms of graffiti that appear in the works are reminiscent of the vibrant posters we know from the city walls. You'll spot insincere tags throughout these artworks—like "Real Romance," "1800s - True Love," or "This Will Change Your Life." With these, the pieces humorously poke fun at the constant bombardment of statements that often only scratch the surface of the truth. This "noise" not only creates an exciting composition but also brings balance and color to the entire artwork.
