Fly Swatter

Fly Swatter is a one-of-one original abstract painting by Tampa Bay artist Deego, and it reads fast: energetic acrylic, sharp contrast, and a yellow-silver-black-white palette with real snap.

The Work

The 16 × 20 inch format keeps the composition compact, which suits the title. Fly Swatter feels quick, reactive, and direct, like a burst of movement frozen before it settles down.

Yellow drives the heat, while silver, black, and white bring the graphic tension. That contrast gives the work a crisp edge, making every mark feel more deliberate and every shift in value more visible.

This is not a mellow abstract. It carries a clipped rhythm and a clean attack, but the hand-painted surface keeps it from feeling mechanical.

The Artist

Deego, also known as Rodrigo Paiva, paints one-of-one originals in Tampa Bay, Florida. His work stays rooted in material decisions, gesture, and the kind of surface variation that only comes from the studio.

In Fly Swatter, that Tampa studio immediacy is part of the appeal. Nothing here feels overworked.

Where It Belongs

This piece makes sense in a kitchen nook, hallway, office, or compact living area that needs a jolt of visual energy. It is especially strong in contemporary interiors around Tampa Bay where black accents and lighter walls are already doing part of the work.

Because the size is easy to place, it can also sharpen a larger gallery wall without getting lost.
