I'm a huge
fan of scientific illustration, so I always wanted to paint an
underwater scene, and a layers-of-earth-strata scene. So, I did. The
layered borders are inspired by tromp l'oiel borders from National
Geographic.
My brother used to take great delight in harassing people with large beetles, especially june
beetles,
while singing a variation on a Polaroid camera jingle: "Meet the
clinger, the Polaroid clinger."
