Introducing Chris Ayers!


After my blog yesterday I realized what a huge crime I had committed. I carry on about how talented Chris Ayers is and then never gave you a sample of his work! Above is "Polychromatic Hippo" by Ayers.
This art appears on day 114 of "The Daily Zoo". Explaining his inspiration Chris writes, "For this one, I was inspired both by tribal markings of certain aboriginal cultures and by the practice of painting elephants for festivals in parts of India. I would imagine an elephant or a hippo for that matter, would be a body painter's dream. What a canvas!"
I challenge you to look at that hippo and not smile.
