Blade Runner Painting – Rick Deckard Portrait by Bart Carels
This Blade Runner painting pays tribute to one of sci-fi’s most iconic characters: Rick Deckard, portrayed by Harrison Ford. I’ve always been drawn to the film’s bleak yet beautiful vision of the future—rain-soaked streets, flickering neon, and philosophical undertones. In this piece, I focused on Deckard’s inner tension: a man tasked with hunting replicants, while questioning what makes someone truly human.
The Neo-Noir Cinematic Look
The color palette reflects Blade Runner’s dark, stylish tone. Cold blues and muted grays pull you into the atmosphere of dystopian Los Angeles, while sharp highlights around the face and weapon offer just enough contrast to feel cinematic. It’s gritty, shadowy, and emotionally loaded—just like the film itself.
A Sci-Fi Icon on Canvas
Whether you’re a longtime fan of Blade Runner or just love powerful movie-inspired art, this painting brings cinematic storytelling to your wall. It’s perfect for living rooms, home theaters, or studios—anywhere you want a piece that sparks conversation and mood. Deckard doesn’t just stand there—he watches you back.
