Wendy! Lovin that Zombie Torch mug you got going!
Talk about advancing one's craft! You are the MASTER,m;dear!

tigertail777-no Tin Burton here.... i think the secret is to find a little bit of humor amongst the pathos in every situation......

Well...got asked to be in the Contemporary Idol exhibition at m Modern next month
which asks for Primitive Idols in slightly Modernist settings,art styles,or integrated within Modernist interiors,etc.....

PNG,Melanesian,African sources were mentioned.....
so i started to do some research and studies..
here's a few and i'll scan the others out of my sketchbook soon!

First...some African Masks with a Modernist twist!

"African Mask"

and another one.....
"African Composition"

Here's one with a swanky home and pool in the background....
"Modern Primitive"
ink and watered down acrylic on Aquarelle Watercolor paper (which is actually 100% cotton!)

and here's a drawing with a more Primitive vibe and setting..
"Path to the Cannibal's Hut"

BUT... I'm thinking of going MORE in this direction with the hut.....

"Refuge by the Bay"
