"A Crabs Life"
This is a take off from a painting I did years ago at the Bathtub Beach in Stuart, Florida. It is part of my new series of mixed media art. I zoomed in and abstracted it a little compared to the first painting ("Rock and Roll").
I used the large aquarium stones this time, with beads that catch the light at different angles. I painted a little crab in the rocks, which was totally spontaneous. It made me laugh when I put the red beads on him for eyes.
The splash was built up in layers of paint. I used more gel medium this time instead of the thick heavy gesso because the gel medium dries clear. It also dries shiny, which was good for sparkle on the water.
