8x8 inch mixed media "stealth"
A green bug-chandy. Guess it came from a dream I had, something about an insect who posed as a chandelier to attract its prey. Whatever it was, I had to make this piece this morning. Who knows what Illustration Friday will bring out in others? Go find out!

Always a surprise, Susan! This one made me smile. As for me, I was pre-inspired yesterday. Who knew?
PS Love the new banner!
THis is perfect!
I love this piece! I want!! :) Happy Easter!
Oh my god, I love this so much!!!!
This is gorgeous! I really love the shape and colors. It's a wonderful piece. Could translate into "3D" as a wall or window hanging.
Beautiful, Susan :)
Happy Easter! :)

really nice work!!
i love this. the paper chandy is something else.
this is really cool, susan! what a great dream image! kinda scary, but very cool.
I see that you've labeled this "silliness," but I see it as whimsical, lyrical and delightful. I love the shapes of the chandelier arms and the delicate candles and crystals. The background color is so fresh and wonderflly textured along the edges. I like!
I love the colors and the dripping crystal-like forms. What an interesting dream.
I love the new banner ... and you've inspired me to try using maps in some "for fun and play" art.
What a wonderful image. I really am drawn to it. Maybe it's because I really like chandeliers. The funny this is that it looks like an actual chandelier that was hanging up in the Diesel store... and then oddly enough appeared again in the Anthropologie store.
oh what a lovely piece! great work, Susan!
i really like this one! the texture and free spirit of it. ;-)
What a concept!! A bug acting as a chandelier to catch prey....I love that!
love that, the dream an d then remembering enough to be inspired in this way. great colours too.
Nice dream, great picture, love the color combination.
I like this! I just bought a copy of "Juxtapose" and was blown away by photographs of chandeliers with arms that look like octopus legs, starfish, etc. Cool stuff!
I just decided to do a little Googling and found he has a myspace page... Enjoy, or not, I think it's cool stuff.

Your colour palette is dreamy. I enjoyed reading about the source of your inspiration as well.... I ...trust it ended well?
I like that- giant bug that hides as a chandelier! Brilliant!
