Inspiration.
I’m inspired by many things, as you are, I’m sure. Nature, nostalgic childhood memories, other artists’ work…or all of the above! As in the case of The Reptile King, growing up in the lush flora and fauna of Panama, teeming with iguanas, tree frogs, boas, and crocodiles, provided a colorful backdrop to life! Throw into the mix, a wonderful artist formerly from Seattle, WA, currently in SW Michigan, Ten Hundred (aka. Peter Robinson), who’s colorful character art spoke to me, inspired me to take a class of his and come up with my own creation.
