Rendered in Godard's signature bold, saturated color palette, this floral piece carries the same theatrical exaggeration and craftsmanship collectors recognize across his work: it belongs to Godard's ongoing Flower Series, applying his bold black-background color technique to botanical subject matter. As with all of Godard's limited editions, the piece rewards close viewing: he is known for tucking hidden names, dates, and initials into his compositions, giving collectors new details to find long after the piece is on the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdetails class=\"godard-faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003eIs Rose Iridescence signed and numbered?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Signed and Numbered Rose Iridescence print is hand-signed by the artist.

Like his other flower paintings, it trades cocktail glasses for petals while keeping the same bold black background that has defined his visual language since his earliest personified olive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat visual language developed slowly, over a career that began nowhere near a canvas. Born March 10, 1963, and raised in Pasadena before settling in Las Vegas, Godard studied at ArtCenter College of Design and the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and spent his twenties as a professional drummer in Las Vegas bands and as an architectural draftsman rather than a painter. A friend's request for a martini-themed birthday piece led him to create his first personified olive, a decision made during a period of genuine hardship when Godard was living in his car to support his children.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHe built his earliest audience trading finished paintings for meals at \"drink and draw\" nights in Las Vegas bars and restaurants, and that same close observation carried directly into his later floral work, of which Rose Iridescence is a part. Godard's well-known habit of hiding names, dates, and initials inside his compositions likely continues here as well, tucked into petals and shadow alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHis public career has grown well beyond gallery walls, earning him the nickname \"Rockstar of the Art World\" through television appearances on A\u0026amp;E's Criss Angel's Mindfreak and American Casino, and collaborations including custom guitar artwork for Guns N' Roses and the 2005 album cover for Dishwalla. His 2006 book Don't Drink and Draw was named an Art Book of the Year, and a documentary about his life has won awards at multiple independent film festivals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince 2006, following the death of his teenage daughter Paige to brain cancer, Godard has supported St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, the Make-A-Wish Foundation, and the Nevada Cancer Institute, regularly visiting hospitals to paint alongside children in treatment. Rose Iridescence, delicate and luminous, reflects the same careful attention Godard brings to every subject, whether it is a flower or a foundation he has supported for years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGodard's other floral paintings, including Yellow Bumble Bee, Red Lady Bug, and High-biscus, share the same appreciation for color and light visible in Rose Iridescence, together forming a quieter counterpart to his better-known cocktail and casino work. Ozzy Osbourne wrote the foreword to one of Godard's books, and his artwork has reportedly been placed in a Pentagon officers' lounge and aboard U.S. Navy vessels, an unusually wide reach for a painter whose earliest work was traded for meals in Las Vegas bars decades ago. His 2006 book Don't Drink and Draw was named an Art Book of the Year, and a documentary about his life has won awards at multiple independent film festivals, both testaments to a career that has never stopped growing since that first small, personified olive commission decades ago in a smoky Las Vegas cocktail bar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Michael Godard","offers":[{"title":"Canvas\/Paper \/ 24\" x 36\" Artist Proof Edition of 50","offer_id":49218599420074,"sku":null,"price":1595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Canvas\/Paper \/ 17.5\" x 26\" G Edition of 250","offer_id":49218599452842,"sku":null,"price":595.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Canvas\/Paper \/ 24\" x 36\" Gallery Proof Edition of 25","offer_id":49218599485610,"sku":null,"price":1995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Canvas\/Paper \/ 24\" x 36\" Signed and Numbered Edition of 300","offer_id":49218599518378,"sku":null,"price":1195.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Canvas\/Paper \/ 48\" x 70\" M Edition of 50","offer_id":49218599551146,"sku":null,"price":3995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0083\/2238\/3935\/files\/RoseIridescense_MichaelGodard.jpg?v=1788964880","url":"https:\/\/michaelgodardgallery.com\/products\/michael-godard-rose-iridescence","provider":"Michael Godard Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
