Description
You are looking at a cropped image of this painting! Please see the WHOLE THING here: i15.photobucket.com/albums/a36…Art info:
Gouache paint, Sharpie outlines.
This is a painting of sugar gliders. I adopted a pair recently.
The style is inspired by aboriginal dot painting. I'm inspired by dot paintings because the many swirls, circles, and spirals give off a cosmic quality. tinyurl.com/kymzt55 COMMISSION INFO: lady-kl.deviantart.com/journal…

Amazing!
I would have gave up on the head of a glider.

The head isn't hard. It's just a triangle shape with HUGE eyes (like the classic grey alien), another triangle for the stripe (or bald spot if it's an intact male), and a couple loops for the ears.

That's awesome!
How many days did this piece take?

I don't keep track. Most of my paintings are done at 1-3 hours at a time over the course of several days. That doesn't include the planning and research done beforehand.

I can definitely see the aboriginal influence. Dot painting has such a distinctive look about it.
Thanks for the llama, BTW. I came to thank you for the llama, but then I was all like, "Ooh, spiffy aboriginal stuff!"

This is beautiful. Aboriginal art was the first thing that came to mind when I saw this & I see that's what inspired you. I like the rich colours.
I wish we had sugar gliders where I live. Those little guys are so cute!
