Kali! There is a lot of colour squeezed into this one! I've long been fascinated with Hindu artwork – devotional images of the beautiful gods and goddesses with their mysterious blue skin used to intrigue me as a child. Kali – possibly my favourite – an incarnation of the mother goddess – but a VERY powerful force to be reckoned with! She's often depicted with severed heads, wreaking her vengence on those who cross her…. I've taken a more subtle approach and have given her a garland of skulls. I've portrayed her in the traditional Daksinakali dancing pose, and this REALLY is a beautiful painting. REMEMBER – you can make this shirt for men/women/children/babies or make it long sleeved or a Tshirt or a tanktop – and even change the colour! All you need to do is click the “Select a Different Shirt Style” link by the sizing options – customize it just how you like it! It does look best either as shown, or in the dark solid colours, or in black, or in white. All shirts are available up to adults size 6X – just scroll through the Shirt Style options for your style choices in extended sizes!

"Fairy Secrets" Postcard
"Alice in a Bosch Wonderland" Postcard
Those of you were at the Downtown Disney event last weekend got a chance to see this one in person as she was displayed in my "Alice Enchanted" show! This painting is part of my "Alice in Other Lands" sub-series containing countless homages & parodies of master paintings throughout the centuries. This one primarily focuses on Hieronymus Bosch with Alice (looking very sweet, based a bit on my niece Eleanor) – standing amongst many of Bosch's fantastical and wonderful creatures. I had a lot of fun with this one. This is my own original acrylic painting.
