#bat hootenanny was inspired by seeing Franz Stuck's "The Sin" at some gallery in Paris a while back. His snake's details in the shadows were stupid rad.

I put so much work into the texture of the wings only to damn near cover it all up in the shadows. But the contrasting bright colored moth/dinner pops against it.

Hanging in a cool frame at work. (i often pick frames first & then paint to fit) A long time client saw it the day after it went up and immediately called it.
So gave her a version that maybe coulda used a little darker shading.

#watercolor #paintings that I still own...
