Among them are a new &#8220;Evillast,&#8221; and a new &#8220;Viva la Muerte,&#8221; all executed in new palettes of softer, more romantic, tempered hues with gorgeous, surreal floral motifs. I also started incorporating more abstract patterns and subtle floating geometric elements into some of my paintings for the first time, contributing to their feeling of surreal otherworldliness and suspension. <\/p>\n<p><strong>ABOUT &#8216;BULLETPROOF&#8217;<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>Bulletproof<\/em> is an ode to the inviolable strength of the survivor, to the imperviousness of her unrelenting will and strength. Viveros&#8217; iconic warrior women are emblematic of this refusal to submit; tough but sensual, they embody the courage of the feminine as empowered Victor. Impassable and steadfast, these heroes cannot be broken down, no matter the ammunition with which they&#8217;re faced. Armored and indomitable, Bulletproof is a collection dedicated to survival.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ABOUT THE NEW COLLECTION:<\/strong> The collection represents some notable firsts; a double portrait, featuring two Dirtyland warriors side by side for the first time, and a large-scale painting, Queen of the Land, depicting a fuller body view draped in detailed bullets, beyond the standard portraiture format Viveros has typically used. <\/p>\n<p>Also part of Bulletproof will be some phenomenal charcoal renderings, a gorgeous signature bull horned helmet girl, &#8220;Raging Bull,&#8221; and a special tribute piece to his favorite tequila, Don Julio entitled &#8220;1942&#8221; All of this phenomenal new work will be coming to London&#8217;s Moniker International Art Fair from Oct. 5 to October 8, 2017.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PLEASE NOTE: <\/strong><br \/>\n<em>For collectors who are familiar with Viveros&#8217; work, know just how high the anticipation and demand is for these originals.
