"We painted this at our friend Ana Noble’s house in Mexico City as a commission for her. Ana had a dream about the painting we made for her (which we hadn’t made yet), described it to us, and we made it a reality, adding a few surprises of our own. I can’t remember what happened exactly but she mentioned a deer and an ibis. We made a pencil sketch, then put together a composition using photos in Photoshop, then painted it. The original painting is 6 and half foot in diameter and is somewhat based on Ana and things she likes.
This piece is unique because it has two half ibis half dear hurdling through space towards a full moon and rainbow. It also has a cactus snake, which is an animal plant I invented! Plus it’s like a portal so works well hung on a ceiling as well as a wall!" - Aaron Glasson & Celeste Byers
