"Legends"

inquiries: corylou311@yahoo.com

I wanted to include a gathering of as many of my favorite legendary and mythical beasts as I could in this painting, and they are: the ceryneian hind (the sacred, Greek deer of Artemis) , Huginn and Muninn (the Norse ravens of Odin; "Thought" and "Memory" or "Mind"), Fenrir (the Norse wolf who destroys Odin), a griffin (the legendary, powerful creature that was a mix of beast and bird), an English folklore white hare (said to be the form witches take at night to look for prey or the restless spirits of broken hearted maidens who haunt their unfaithful lovers), and Ratatoskr (the Norse squirrel who runs up and now the world tree to carry messages between the eagle and the worm).

I'm Here For Your Heart and I'm Not Leaving Without It

"I'm Here For Your Heart and I'm Not Leaving Without It"

Inspired by agriozoophilia; the obsessive love of wild animals

I chose agriozoophilia for the theme of this painting; the obsessive love of wild animals, which is definitely something I have!

I was also inspired by Valentine's Day, love, jealously, hatred, confusion; really all the mixed emotions that this holiday can stir up.  

The animals are all experiencing different emotional states within or without relationships, and the title is both literal and figurative.

The show boasts yet another amazing lineup, including Buddy Nestor, Heather Gargon, Dan Harding, Caity Hackett, Jackie Gallagher, Jasmine Worth, Michal Brodka, Mike Wohlberg, Suzanne Falk, Zoe Williams and many more, including myself.
