Alice and the Piglet 11"x14" Acrylic on canvas
Another from Alice-land!
This scene always resonated with me, because as strange as the whole Wonderland/Looking-glass world is, having a baby turn into a piglet on you seems particularly scary and bizarre. It seems strange to have a maternal nightmare in a story about the adventures of such a little girl.
But then, of course, strange is the lay of the land.
I also think it adds an extra layer of peculiarity that Alice is small during this part, so that little piglet must be extra tiny!
There are three more paintings still to show from the Alice series, all finished and waiting to be shared! All that's really left to do is get all the paintings framed up now. There are 12 in all, and I've been having a fun time looking at them all together.
Back with more Alice soon!
PS: Thanks so much for all the Miette-sweater tips/leads! Hopefully a very nice peppermint striped pal will come of it.
