Prices shown are the current live listing prices. Each edition is a fixed print run, so once an edition sells out, no further prints of that size or type are produced. When last reviewed, live stock counts for the Metal editions read zero even though the gallery's price list lists them as available, so confirm current availability on the product page or contact the gallery before you order.

A quieter, nocturnal scene

The product record describes Night Flight as a hummingbird caught mid-hover before a luminous full moon, with vivid pink calla lilies rising from moonlit water below, and calls it a quieter corner of Godard's catalog, a tall, narrow composition built for a striking vertical wall. The record does not include an artist statement for this piece, so this guide sticks to what the listing states.

About Michael Godard

From draftsman and drummer to "Rockstar of the Art World"

Born in 1963 and later based in Las Vegas, Godard studied at ArtCenter College of Design in Pasadena and at UNLV, and spent years working as a draftsman and commercial illustrator, and drumming in Las Vegas bands, before painting full time. The turning point was a friend's request for a birthday painting about dirty martinis: he answered with personified, animated olive characters full of attitude, and that became the visual language behind the nickname collectors know him by, the "Rockstar of the Art World."

The signature style

His pop art is instantly recognizable: personified characters, bold saturated color, and theatrical exaggeration with a satirist's sense of timing. Night Flight applies that same craft to its own subject, exactly what you see in this piece.

Beyond the canvas, and giving back

His book Don't Drink and Draw, with a foreword by friend and collector Ozzy Osbourne, was named an Art Book of the Year in 2006. Since 2006, following the loss of his daughter Paige to brain cancer at 16, the artist has maintained an ongoing charitable relationship with St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, the Make-A-Wish Foundation, and related causes.
