ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Inspired by the wind blowing through the fields of wildflowers, this painting represents a perfect snippet of time captured in small window of colors. An original mixed media painting on custom made handmade paper. It is 5" x 7" in size with an alcohol ink artwork in the centre adorned by hand drawn, acrylic additions around it. It is then sprayed with a couple coats of Sennelier's satin varnish to ensure protection from sunlight over time. The painting comes mounted in a 6" x 8" floater frame stained in dark polish, ready to hang. Artist's signature with the date on the side of the frame. Please Note - Due to differences in monitor screens, color may appear slightly different in person than on screen. All artworks made are original in design and idea. Hanging hardwares are not included. The painting can be hung flushed to the wall, directly by the frame. Please message or email in the case of any problems.

Hi! I am Menka Desai-Crawford, an Architect turned Artist and the face behind Mantis Shrimp Monocles. After exploring the possibility of a career change to Art while in New York City, I pursued it full-time in Mumbai for three years. Not only is Mumbai my hometown, but also where I really learned about alcohol inks, and where a whole new avenue opened up for me as an Artist. Fast forward to 2021, I now live in Portland, Oregon with my husband, David. I have explored and continue to explore a variety of mediums such as Gouache, Watercolors, Resin, and surfaces like handmade papers, synthetic sheets and wood, among others. The small art business that started way back in 2018 has now become Mantis Shrimp Monocles LLC, registered with the State of Oregon. I love a good composition on everything - whether on paper, in spaces or in imagination. I look forward to this exciting journey and hope my artwork will bring as much joy to you as it has brought me while creating it.
