Disgruntled Goat

Pop culture goodness brought to life through hand-cut paper collage, adhesive and paint.

Inspired by The Simpsons and the wonderfully obscure “Disgruntled Goat,” this piece celebrates nostalgia, humour and playful detail. Loads of carefully cut and torn paper fragments come together to create a richly layered, textural surface.

The collage materials have been sourced from a damaged Simpsons board game, vintage magazines, packaging, books, brochures and junk mail. Hidden throughout the work are unexpected snippets of text, imagery and quirky discoveries — including a few familiar show characters — rewarding closer inspection.

Finished with two coats of high-gloss varnish, the surface has a sleek, glass-like sheen that enhances depth and makes the colours truly pop. The edges are fully decorated, so the piece is ready to hang.

Thanks for checking it out.

Cheers,

Darren
