“Richard Mary” A Satirical Pop Art Tribute to Rik Mayall & Bottom. This pop art satire painting is my celebration of the genius of Rik Mayall, an actor and comedian who shaped my childhood with his anarchic humor. Inspired by the legendary Bottom episode “Holy”, this artwork captures one of Richie’s most unforgettable proclamations:
“My name is now Richard Mary… do everything I say, or you’ll all go to Hell!”
“Richard Mary” A Satirical Pop Art Tribute to Rik Mayall & Bottom. This pop art satire painting is my celebration of the genius of Rik Mayall, an actor and comedian who shaped my childhood with his anarchic humor. Inspired by the legendary Bottom episode “Holy”, this artwork captures one of Richie’s most unforgettable proclamations:
“My name is now Richard Mary… do everything I say, or you’ll all go to Hell!”
Taking the satire a step further, I fused Bottom’s chaotic comedy with the grandeur of religious iconography, drawing influence from classic paintings of the Virgin Mary. Richie is depicted as a saintly figure, complete with a liquid gold halo and the Immaculate Heart of Mary, but with a signature Bottom twist Eddie’s Christmas hat sitting cheekily among the flames.
This piece is more than just a satirical painting; it’s a personal homage to Rik Mayall’s impact, his irreverent spirit, and the way his work shaped me and my friends. A mix of pop art, comedy, and irreverent religious parody, it’s a painting that celebrates the man, the legend, and the laughter he gave us all.
