The Lion's share

A painting I did last year now sold.

In my continual need to use animals in my art I love to sometimes play with that thin wire of danger. There are some animals who would not happily be our pets, yet we are intrigued by them and often use them in Vegas or circus acts.

I wanted to capture the tranquility and pastoral beauty of a sunny garden and a child's delight with just a hairwidth level of tension as one begins to unfold their own various stories of what might be coming.

I love art with story. Although it might not be 'correct' when I visit museums I cannot help but spin yarns and tales to accompany the characters and places in art. Even in abstractions, the mind builds and spins webs of adventure, deceit, or love.

Having been incapacitated over the past few days with my wretched foot, I have been looking through some older pieces for consideration in adding them to my Singularity series. I feel this painting is ripe for 'conversion' to my series.

This piece is a sold piece. It was done first in sketches and some acrylic studies, but the final piece was done digitally, printed, then more application added and it's in private hands now. But, as the piece is digitally preserved, I can happily add to it and change it to fit into my growing Singularity obsession.

Now, I am off to a busy day, as I have to somehow manage to drive today with my bound foot! Needs must when the devil drives, as they say.
