Michael Godard painted I Rest My Case in the high-contrast, character-driven style that has made him one of the best-known pop artists working today.
It's a favorite among collectors of Las Vegas pop art, cocktail and bar wall art, and limited edition giclee, the imagery that first built Godard's reputation as the Rockstar of the Art World.
"I was in court during a deposition and the opposing counsel got really pissed off and threw a briefcase across the room. I thought it was so hilarious, I painted “I Rest my Case.” On the rim of the glass, we see the olive that has lost his case tossing it into the martini out of frustration. The victor olive is kicked back behind the gavel. The scale of justice is blown into the stem of the glass." ~ Michael Godard

About Michael Godard
I Rest My Case gives Michael Godard's olive characters a courtroom, one more entry in a long line of paintings where his signature fruit take on human professions with total confidence. That instinct to build full personalities for anthropomorphic characters started with the very first olive Godard painted, a birthday commission built around dirty martinis that he answered with a face, arms, and attitude rather than a plain still life.
