Crystal Kung, Anteater, Watercolor, 8 X 5 1/2"

Watercolor, 8 X 5 1/2"

Crystal Kung's delight in character behavior comes through in her every depiction, from portraits of her own pets, to more fantastical creatures and scenarios.

In this exquisite watercolor, an anteater watches as ants march by beneath him. 

"I always like these random animals. I like the way they look, but just get so curious... Like, why do they look like that? Animal species, they develop over like, 1000s, millions of years, right? I realize these animals, they're probably just in the middle. They haven't been fully developed yet. They look weird. Their proportion is wrong!"
