A Funny Flood

My second serious acrylic painting attempt from my beginning painting class.  We had a still life reference that included a stuffed bunny, some vases, fake grapes, and a rubber ducky all laid about on a large piece of blue paper.

This image strikes me as warm and friendly injected with some dramatic flare.  What I enjoy most is that every time I look at this image I am so certain there is a story there, but still I am just not sure what it is.

Originally this painting was a gift to my wife, her playful imagination inspired the original mindset in which I approached the work. It is dedicated to her and how much color and life she brings to my life.  She will always allow me to see the world a little differently, a little more beautiful.

Currently this work hangs in the living room in a couple’s home.  They are the best of friends, and of the utmost caliber of creative, fun, as well as professional and moral people.  I hope it keeps bring smiles to them.
