ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This piece deals with the plight of endangered animals, using vintage book covers as a painting surface. I was also working with the idea of combining and layering patterns-from the Sycamore bark to the leopard's spots to the butterflies' wings, ending with the red laser beams trained at the big cat. I added the genus/species (Danaus plexippus) to impart the sense of a scientific catalog, which in future may be the only place this creature can be found. Also, I found it rather humorous sounding.

SHIPPING AND RETURNS
Delivery Time:

Typically 5-7 business days for domestic shipments, 10-14 business days for international shipments.

I live and work in the NYC area and feel fortunate to be in an environment that inspires creativity. Communication is the undercurrent of my work. Through various techniques and surfaces, I am able to comment on things important to me and, hopefully, engage the viewer in a visual dialogue.
