I’m afraid of spiders. I mean, conceptually I love them, they do wonderful thing, making their own spun works of art, and protecting us from bugs and stuff. I appreciate them, but they have no boundaries, and they move abruptly. It just freaks me out! When I am afraid, I tend to run right at the thing that scares me. Not always, but often. My family has always tried to learn about a scary thing to try to demystify it and help us learn how to deal with it, rather than quake in terror. So I found the most inoffensive spider that exists in my part of the world, the Orb Weaver, which incidentally was the same kind of spider from the book Charlotte’s Web. This painting is the product of me learning about something that scares me, while also learning how to convey the way light and water look, with paint. I just love my little friend Charlotte here, and I’m so delighted to be able to share with you the profound joy of her sunny little day!
