Lions, Tigers and... Camels? Oh my!

Hi folks! Sorry for the long absence. My attention has been focused elsewhere (on zee art for an upcoming show) and I've been avoiding my home computer! Plus I've been going overload at work, so  while I'm not painting, any excuse to hit the gym and not the keyboard is a good one in my book right now. 

While I'm being secretive about the pieces I've finished for the Rogue show, I'd like to talk about my new inspiration... 

Camels!

What a delectable looking animal, no? This little guy just became my new best friend. Lately I've taken a trend in my art to try and incorporate my figures with an opposing animal buddy... preferably a ridiculous one. While I won't show you the image (just yet) of my latest animal escapade, I will say it included an oddly colored and slightly elusive Yak... :-)

So, you can expect to see this little camel friend pop up sometime soon in a new piece. Or you just might see some camel jockeys! How awesome, right? I swear, if I were 4ft nothin' and weighed 40lbs... New Profession?!

Cheerio!
