"Make Lego Not War" Original Artwork. Acrylic on canvas.
Whilst making some Lego, this popped into my head, so I painted it.
A homage to Bob & Roberta Smith and Lego themselves.
LEGO have a policy against making any modern realistic looking military sets, minifigures, vehicles, or weapons. Their founder, Ole Kirk Christiansen, believed that children's play should not look like real world war. Lego comes from two Danish words: "leg godt"; in English, "play well". There's some adults who need to learn that.
Acrylic paint on canvas. 31cm x 31cm x 1.2cm.
