Three-spined Sticklebacks & Belted Kingfisher (2024)  acrylic on illustration board 24" x 18" $12,000. |
This painting began with thoughts of sticklebacks
and their funny, zigzag trajectory in the water. I experimented with trying to simulate that motion with various juxtapositions of swimming fishes. While playing around with these arrangements, I came up with a few different concepts and compositions. This one, from a point of view at the bottom of the stream, peering past the sticklebacks to a kingfisher above, was my favorite. |
