About this work

This print shows a wild mix of figures in a dreamy, yellow-tinted scene. A horned, winged creature holds a telescope pointing at a floating face in a circle. Below, two hairy, dancing figures move with a child and a monkey. To the right, a serious man in a suit stands next to a cat. The background is packed with faint outlines of people and strange marks. The artist added watercolor and acrylic to the etched lines, making the colors pop against the rough texture. The floating face looks like it’s being studied or watched.
