Sometimes you get the bug
sometimes the bug gets you! |
Last week I attended my first "Meet and Greet". It was held at Art Mundo's Underground Bank introducing the 24 artists that were accepted to create paintings for the 2011 calendar. I chose to do the "Year of the Bug" just to be just this side of silly. Here is some of the art work I did: Hope they bring a grin to your face!
The 5x7 pictures were made with hand made paste papers to create a whimsical image of bugs. The wings get their iridescent quality from Angelia film or fibers.

Honey Bee |
Some bugs are realistic and some are pure imagination.
|
Sunset Moth |
|
Purple Beetle |
|
Praying Mantis |
Some are a simple rendering and others are super detailed.
|
Geiger Beetles |
|
Yellow Woolly Bear Caterpillar |
|
Adonis Butterfly |
All were fun to create and I wish Art Mundo well on their fund raiser.
Opinions on my creations are welcome......
