Testing The Waters is a limited edition giclée by Michael Godard, painted in the bold, saturated color and theatrical style that has defined his work since the 1990s.

Testing The Waters swaps Godard's usual olives for two personified green apple-slice characters perched on the rim of a martini glass, one cautiously dipping a leg into the drink below, a literal take on its title. Fans of man cave art and Las Vegas pop art gravitate toward pieces like this one.

"This is for those who play it safe before taking a risk." ~ Michael Godard

This is a gallery wrapped canvas that is ready to hang.

About Michael Godard

Born March 10, 1963, and raised in Pasadena, California, Godard later put down roots in Las Vegas, Nevada, where his career and reputation took shape. His formal education includes time at ArtCenter College of Design in Pasadena and at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. "Testing The Waters" reworks his cocktail-character formula with a twist: two green apple-slice characters take the place of his usual olives, one perched on the glass rim and the other cautiously stepping into the drink below. It belongs to a career that began far from any gallery.
