Armadillos
InquireAs I worked on this painting, I felt like an illustrator from an old natural history encyclopedia. The precise cross-hatching and fine line work allow me to make the bodies of the animals grow almost sculpturally out of the paper. As I shape them, I feel their strength and agility – each posture emerges from observing real movement patterns. Thus the animals appear alive, as if they were about to break out of the frame at any moment.
