Fireflies Palace



And now, night: the rich, deep volume for the fire flies blooms. Traditional illusion was beginning to erode in Dream Gods with the catspiders silhouettes outlined in red. The realm of flat stage sets and created depth begin to collage. Kind of knock heads.

I was working on these paintings and 2 Dead Girls (as yet unpublished graphic novel written by Pam Noles) simultaneously. The comic has many silhouettes, and I thought about them a lot. A fair amount of cross fertilization happened.
I imagine a bee, pollen starred in its furry legs, skid landing on a velvety bloom. This leaves a stroke of information that will show up in some new configuration next spring.
That's how it works in my brain.
