UNDERWORLD 5 ~ COBRA LILIES

COBRA LILIES ~ 10" X 20" ~ Acrylic on canvas ~ 2009

Study #2 for the painting, 'UNDERWORLD 5'

This is (what I call) a study for the larger painting I'm planning. Before I begin painting the larger piece, I want to make sure I'm happy with the characters and other aspects of the painting, water, sky, plant colors, etc ... I think this one holds it's own. I dig the cobras and the guy walking through the swamp. He was an unexpected visitor into my world. I'm not sure if he will be in the big painting or not.

I noticed that people in the past compared your works with that of giger.
Well seeing your works always reminds me of the movies made by Rene Laloux.
His films contains also this almost surrealist organic but at the sametime machinelike creatures. Maybe the style is different but the comparison is striking. If you don't know him you should really check it out.
