It’s part of the Morphology series. It’s a 12″ x 12″ canvas. Mixed media (collage, oils.) I have a few more from the series in progress. A suspension worm-girl among them. She’ll probably be finished before the rest.

I stretched a 38″ x 30″ canvas today so I hope to get started on that soon as well. Most likely it will be part of the series.

I can feel ideas churning in my gut, so by tomorrow I should have a finished preliminary drawing and be able to start on the base collage.

Basically I just hope to get some sleep tonight. I like the creative energy and everything, but it tends to keep me awake if I don’t submit to its will immediately. You know in Audition when the woman pokes the needles into the guy’s eyes? It’s something like that.
