This painting is called Jungle Town.
I had this idea almost a year ago, but I never thought I'd actually get around to doing it. When I heard that we were going to be given a free project in my art class I thought it was a good a time as any to finally start this project.
I love the surrealism of the painting. My favorite kind of painting is the kind that depicts a snapshot of a story, and I feel this painting does that very well. The Tiger and the Boy are inspired by Calvin and Hobbes.
Before I sold Jungle Town a few weeks ago, it was hanging over my bed. I used glow in the dark paint on the neon signs, so that as soon as I turned off the lights the painting would begin to glow.
I have decided to make Jungle Town into a series and am currently working on a Woodland remix to add to the collection.
