here's a brand new design i cooked up especially for mondo's upcoming “house party” gallery exhibit. the show will feature over 100 artists, all creating original pieces, all for $200 each. kind of insane.

i wanted to engineer a piece that is a showcase for scrollwork. looking to the animal kingdom for reference, i narrowed my choices down to a fish, a deer (antlers are fun) and a beetle. in the end, i couldn't pass up the opportunity to create those wings.

check out the process gallery below for detail shots and to see the crate i built to get this guy safely to the show.

house party opens friday, march 18 at the mondo gallery in austin, tx. you can read all about it here.
