the enigma aliens at Gallery Nucleus


Last night "The Animal Kingdom" opened at Gallery Nucleus and alien menagerie 10 & 11 were part of this show.These are small pieces, measuring 6" X 8". Working this size, I chose to focus mostly on the aliens, and keep the environment stark, aiming for a surreal tone overall. The enigma aliens inhabit dream-space, their character a mystery.



Here's a video showing progress on enigma alien 2.



I wasn't ready to leave their world behind, so I made this extract depicting an alien which was a contender for enigma 2.



I'd like too thanks Wade Buchanan for inviting me to participate. "The Animal Kingdom" is viewable online here.
