Flood Plain & Sunset


Keeping it real with the unreal. Eat it all but the banana peel. In this painting a fish-human seems to be trying to breath in a bubble of water floating in a desert. The colour sense is reversed, cool green reeds with coy at the bottom and searing hot desert sunset at the top. Incredible range of warm grey and browns connect it all. On a more real note I just bought ten more guppies for my tank today. One looks sick upon arrival but that's okay. It reminds me that I would like to do another portrait of my apartment and fish tank a la where go the fish. And no I'm not drinking again, just listening to Neil Young Psychedelic Pill, which is almost the equivalent to a mild joint. 6 x 8" cold press, watercolour, 2016
