The concept for Michael Blessing’s “Neon West” series evolved by combining his love of figure painting with the nostalgic pull of vintage neon signs. The result is a series of larger than life historical and old West movie characters rendered in a contemporary style. combining his love of figure painting with the nostalgic pull of vintage neon signs.
