Turtle Bubbles (Framed)

$800.00

This is the first piece in a triptych of animal mouth subjects. I found the anatomy of open animal mouths fascinating and wanted to transform them by isolating them and placing them in a strange textural context. In this case, we have a leatherback turtle's mouth surrounded by bubbles, which becomes a strange isolated aperture when isolated from the animal's face—transforming this anatomical study into an abstract textural piece.

Charcoal on acid-free 400 series Strathmore bristol paper, 2016. Sprayed with a fixative to prevent smudging. Hand-signed by the artist and framed. As with any indoor artwork, avoid exposure to direct sunlight. Reproductions may not be made without permission.

11”x14” drawing matted in a 16”x20” black frame with museum glass. Framed piece comes protected by bubble wrap in standard shipping box. Please allow 14 business days to receive.
