Inspired by one of my favourite books, The Little Prince. The aviator, as a child, had drawn a snake that swallowed an elephant – but the adults think it’s just a hat and ask, “Why would a hat be scary?” Frustrated, he draws a see-through version to explain. This piece is my playful take on that line. Why might a hat be scary? Because this one is swallowed whole by a big, mighty snake.
Drawn with alcohol markers and pencil.
size: 5×7”
