Sea Nettle, Gas & Metal, 27×12, oil on paperboard

Painting on unconventional surfaces has always been interesting to me, and upcycling is important to my life philosophy and artistic practice. This lively, lush painting of sea nettle jellyfish is presented on a box that once housed a metal gas can. The composition featuring the two jellyfish leverages image components and catchphrases printed on the original box. The bottom and top edges of the box are left raw, exposing the corrugated cardboard.
