The Wolf Ate Themby `ursulav

Traditional Art / Mixed Media / Animals & Plants

I don't usually blame my scanner, since there's a lot I can do with Photoshop, but in this case...yeah, blame the scanner. The dark blot in the middle is not nearly so pronounced in real life, since there's a very shiny glaze and some metallic inks rubbed over it, none of which came through on the scanner, but which break up the darks a lot more on the actual physical piece. (In fact, there's a neat effect where the edges of the transparent glaze break glittery green in the right light.) So the composition isn't quite so...borked...in reality.

Feh, sez I.

The text was what was written next to the sketch of the bunny in my sketchbook...I am fairly skeptical of emo epigraphs on paintings, but there was a sense of quiet betrayal to the sketch that worked for me.

Anyway, 6 x 8, ready to hang, original is for sale, don't know if prints of this are a worthwhile endeavor.

ETA: I should clearly just stop trying to judge my own work!

I just love the background in this piece.

I like the way you use text - you make me want to give it all up

I'm in love with all the different greens you used and I think it's neat the way the rabbit seems to almost be looking at the text.

What do the words say? The most I can make out are "You, the wolf ate them." Those other words are either gibberish or something else that I can't make out.
