I am now the proud owner of an Ohio artist Mike Egan original painting! I pulled the trigger on this beautiful painting from his Tiny Deaths series, a collection of 100 small paintings offered up in early November.
I had perused what pieces I could see in the teaser photos, making a mental note of the pieces that stood out and caught my eye. And as the paintings sold off quickly as the online sales started, I selected Tiny Death 9. A bold, solid piece featuring a skeleton in a maroon hooded cloak and scythe on a flat, light green field, painted in Egan's signature bold and colorful folk art style.
I really liked the starkness of this particular piece with its block shapes and flat colors. It stood out from the rest of the more colorful and busy pieces, and is going to look absolutely great on my home office wall, where hopefully future pieces will also reside.
Support independent artists and visit Egan's website to pick up original paintings, prints, toys, books and merch (unfortunately the entirety of the Tiny Deaths series has sold out). Just in time for the holidays!
