Artist
Douglas Fromm
Medium
Painting - Acrylic & Collage On Canvas
Description
An artist friend gave me this canvas that he had given up on, which had a saber-toothed hyena creature emerging from a junglelike landscape. I painted over the features that I didn't like and collaged in organic and botanical elements to send it into a different direction.
This work was chosen by a jury to be exhibited in the 2013/14 National Collage Show.

This could be viewed as magical (which I believe) or nightmarish. Fabulous creation.
Douglas Fromm replied:
I appreciate your insightful compliment ....” Magical “ sounds more appealing !....when I used to show it in galleries it received mixed opinions, viewers either liked it or hated it....
Steve Taylor

Ok, my crazy brain is reading elephant-jellyfish hybrid in a flower garden with eyes. I particularly like the frog with hot lips (hello my baby, hello my baby, hello my ragtime gal...sorry, flashback to my youth and the Saturday morning funnies.) I adore art that sends my brain off the reservation so of course I LOVE this!!!!!!!
Douglas Fromm replied:
Thank you for another fine ( and funny ! ) ) compliment .,.....now I can add Hot Lips Frog to the infamous cast of characters in my Illustrated Hall of Fame of Planet Bizarro !!......

Glad you were able to breathe new life into this canvas!
Douglas Fromm replied:
Thank you for the compliment !....I shared a studio with the artist that gave this piece to me, so I had to listen to his unappreciative comments while working on it . Eventually, after it was selected to a national show, he decided it was at least “ok”....
