Illustration Friday - Monsters

I did these etchings for a show last fall. Insects do look like monsters, especially the tiny ones when you look at them under a microscope.

Bargain

In the middle of the 16th century the Count of Beyreuth accepted two unicorn horns as payment of debts from emperor Karl V.

1711

Since the opening at Nucleus was last night I can post the full images now. Here is the first one:

In 1711 a narwhale swam up the Elbe river all the way to Hamburg.

Peek Number Two

The opening at Black Maria was great, thank you all for coming out! This is another peek at a piece I will have at Gallery Nucleus next Saturday. See you there!

Illustration Friday - Insects

I never drew on photography before this piece. It was really interesting to work with a photographer. The picture is by Jessica Haye.
