Don’t be a crab carl

ALLIGATORS, how did we get here. Better question, how did I get here… creating alligator artwork with their individual personalities. 1. Alice (A is for Alice) was not my first alligator, but first in my current body of work. Alice, highlight little bits and pieces of Florida memorabilia and my move to Florida at 8 years old.

2. Don’t Be a Crab Carl explores cute Carl’s hidden personality. Carl looks mean and crabby, but his crab friends know better. Carl is not so crabby. He does love meat but appreciates his fellow swamp inhabitants like butterflies and baby ducks, too.

I’m thinking it’s time for a new alligator.
