Work on Paper by Mark Westervelt: Waddles When It Walks

Yellow-green figure with a tiny crest wears silver bell-shaped trousers.

This work on paper is by Mark Westervelt, and is ca. 2012. It is paint on paper. Because the skins are peeled up, anything painted on them is reversed, so he must write text backwards and paint a figure facing right if it is meant to look left. Close up, a small figure with an olive-yellow head and a little spike on top sits above a gray collar. Rounded silver and white legs outlined in black bell out below, over small black feet. It is 6 inches wide and 7 high.

The crest is modest, the trousers are not.
