ALIENS (1979)
Acrylic on Watercolor Board - 23” x 14”

The concept here is that the aliens and the lone human-—who is an alien to the others—are posing for a group photograph, with the photographer being out of view to the right. ¼

A group of aliens surround a bearded human as they strike a pose for a group photo. The aliens resemble Earth animals ranging from lizards, birds, and fish to more wildly imagined creatures.

While touring England and Wales for some weeks, I went for the longest time in my life without doing so much as a scribble. Ridiculous though it may sound, I began to worry that I might not be able to draw or paint when I returned. 2/4

Creature detail from ALIENS featuring in profile a lizard with huge yellow eyes with a thin vertical slit. Behind a bird-like creature with blue and brown feathers poses with its orange eyes and beak reflecting the light. To the right of the lizard, a hand with long purple fingers rests on the shoulder of a furry creature with bear-like nose. Two tusks curl up with fur covers its mouth.
