Well, I had to put "Visitor No. 2" aside for a time. I haven't had much time to paint lately as I've started a new job (and was sick for awhile). When I did have time to work on artwork, I had another project that needed my attention. My good friend, Marianne, is throwing an art show/Halloween party in her sister's photography gallery in Cleveland's Little Italy. Marianne is a wonderful artist (painting, jewelry, sculpture) and takes a generally creative approach to life. As such, she took an interesting approach to the event she was creating. She asked people in her life who are "artists" and others, who would probably not define themselves that way, to create something to contribute to the show. I have no idea which of the two she considers me to be ... but, in any case, she asked me to "throw something together" for the show. She suggested, as it is a Halloween party, to think along the lines of bones and skeletons. So, this is what I came up with ....



I wanted the project to fit into the "Visitor" series. So, as you can see, my little friend the bug (perhaps I should name him) is included. There you have it ...
