When I first discovered the pixelated watercolor paintings of American artist Adam Lister, I was immediately captivated by his unique and striking style. His work reinterprets iconic artworks and pop culture characters, blending classic themes with a modern, digital aesthetic.
Inspired by the 8-bit graphics of Atari and Nintendo game consoles, Lister transforms familiar images into geometric, pixel-like compositions, giving his paintings a nostalgic yet contemporary feel.
Born in 1978, Adam Lister is based in New York City and has exhibited his work in various galleries across the USA and London. Limited-edition prints of his pieces are available for purchase on his official website.
