A collection of humorous paintings features ducks, elephants, rabbits, pigs, and other animals in situations that put a new wrinkle into familiar expressions
I love artists, particularly those who can make me smile. This book features some of the inventive works by Will Bullas, who paints canvases full of animals with a touch of mischief.
I have studied, enjoyed and painted so many Indian Runner ducks, that there isn't a place or predicament I don't think they can't improve.
DUCK TAPE
He is definitely the Duckmeister, but every animal has a chance for fame.
THE NERD DOGS
He also paints humans, and this is one of my favorites.
GYPSY
The book's introduction is written by Doris Day, so that was fun, and the overall presentation is spot-on, with each picture given prominence. I'm sure there's nothing wrong with owning a Picasso, but I would rather own an original Bullas. If my ship ever arrives, it shall happen.
"The animals that skulk, waddle and leap out of Will Bullas' imagination have a lot more personality and purpose than we've been led to expect by zoologists. There are no garden-variety creatures here. His extraordinary talent in watercolor i9s free of pretension and brimming with fun and mischief. Have you ever met the Storkbroker? How about the Mistletoad? And who's to say thyat a duck can't experience 'joie de vivre' or anh ape may not be suddenly overcome with world weariness? Here are over one hundred new watercolor one-liners for you, so cozy up, and waddle in. You'll find plenty of zany friends inside." ~~back cover
Including Duck Tape which made me laugh out loud when I saw it on a t-shirt, which I promptly bought and gave to a friend who shares my whacko sense of humor as a Christmas present. He laughed out loud too.
