HOPPER TRIPTYCH- watercolor




A new triptych for the small INTRUDERS show.  It didn't make it to framing stage-- but I will include this beautiful triptych anyway.

The monarch was particularly fun to paint.  I believe it shows a freedom and splash that could only be achieved after painting 200 other bugs!

There's no way I would have painted this as simply and directly as it is-- without all that other foundational understanding of all the other bugs.

Viva la insects!

I am finally rounding down my series on bugs.  There's only a few more to do for Crate & Barrel-- then I stop.

It's been a good run.. and I've had a super time with all that it's lead me to do.

I have loved making the book, the note cards, the lapel pin, the mini-moo cards, the poster, and working with PaperPaintPress on the wallpaper, and with Anne Taussig on the TEES.

What a super opening we will have next Friday!

Please come if you can-- and celebrate the small INTRUDERS!

BIG LADY and BIG DRAGON have been added to the series of BIG INTRUDERS.  They are all currently at the framer's.... getting their final coat of frame for presentation.

The BUG GRID was up to 8 paintings... although only 5 will be shared at the small INTRUDERS exhibition.  I will include the other 3 as matted.

The bigger bugs are more arresting in character-- and draw your attention to the drama of the bug-- more than it's preciousness.


So excited to get ready for the show!


Don't forget to come next Friday May 3.  ALL ARE INVITED.

BIG INTRUDERS




BIG INTRUDERS

Big Intruders are making their way into the upcoming show.  I have been working on a series of 8 larger watercolors for the small INTRUDERS show.   I will chose the best of 5 to be in the exhibition. 
It's definitely a race to the finish!

One more beetle.. and one more butterfly are in the works.  So far.. I like these four.

What do you think?
