What’s in a name? A lot, in this case. Ok, in all of my work. If it's esoteric to your friends, you’ll surprise them by pointing out the abundant flora and fauna in "The Giant..."

Here’s a hint. When hiding from orca whales, the gray whales will immerse themselves in kelp forests (the Weeds) for better protection. Gray whales (the Giants) also feed on invertebrates and crustaceans that are found in kelp forests. Giant Kelp beds, which are all over the Pacific Northwest where I live, have thick, flexible stalks up to a hundred feet in length with a bulbous growth on the end. They’re black and deep blue in "The Giant.."

Find also the apple, the cactus, the leaf, the deer hoof print, the daisies, and the poppy. Not to omit tropical fare, see also the banana and the Crocodile (the Sly). "The Giant, the Sly and the Weed" is a celebration of the fruits of life, literally, those we eat and those we protect.

Materials Used: Acrylic on Canvas

The 1-1/2” deep museum mount edges are painted as extensions of the composition. The Giant... arrives prewired, ready to hang.
