Count Sassingston of Snark
Overview
Count Sassington of Snark is one of four knights in a series inspired by reredos, medieval knight mythology, and tales of valour and chivalry. Here, the armour itself takes centre stage — it carries personality and character without the need for a wearer, hinting at the nature of the person who might inhabit it. Printed on a clean white background, the piece allows space for framing and brings a fun, light-hearted energy.
Style & Colour
The armour is dressed in lively pinks and oranges, decorated with bold, playful shapes. It sits within a reredos-inspired frame of cool blues, peppermint, and lime greens, giving the impression of a brightly wrapped boiled sweet. The style draws on collage, patterned walls, ornaments, and homely decor, blending these elements into an inviting sense of familiarity.
Beneath Count Sassington rests a curious collection of objects, including a bunny clutching a “burn book” — a nod to the Count’s reputation for gossip and sharp opinions. The work is a playful study of character and persona, with humour woven into its details.
Digitally assembled from hand-drawn patterns, scanned textures, and additional drawing with a tablet and pen, the piece layers linoleum-inspired motifs and felt-tip textures to create depth and ornamentation. It invites viewers to linger over its intricacies and bursts of colour.
This artwork would sit beautifully in a maximalist space or any setting with maximal potential, adding vibrancy, wit, and character.
