Triptych Watercolor-- JOURNEY

I haven't posted much the last few days----  I'm getting ready for my small INTRUDERS show.

There is a lot of marketing and other responsibilities involved.....

But... I have been working on 5 large watercolors for the show.  They will form a cryptic multiple painting seen above.

Please let me know what you think.


Each panel will be sold separately [or together]... but each will be individually painted and framed.


The concept and title is JOURNEY.   It's a reference to the journey the bug goes through in his life- as well as the journey I've been through in documenting these wonderful creatures of the bug kingdom.

APA FUNDRAISER in ST LOUIS-- BIG KITTY!

I was invited to paint BIG KITTY for a fundraiser for the APA [Animal Protective Agency] here in St Louis.

The sculpture was huge and a challenge to paint.

It will be displayed this summer--- after receiving a concrete base and plaque-- at BUSCH STADIUM in St. Louis at one of the home games.

At some point-- it will be auctioned to raise money for the APA.

I love animals.. and I have adopted two kitties-- one for the APA and one feral.

We need to do all we can do to help animals who can't find a home.


Enjoy!
