"Get Lost"
Acrylic on Vinyl
2011
I got a blank Munny doll some time ago and I've been meaning to paint it. Once the theme came up, I had planned several other ideas before I remembered the Munny. I love the look of the fantasy maps of Tolkien and similar artists. The way they simplify topographic features into symbolic representations, along with the variations in earth tones used, appealed to me. I made a conscious choice to not have the topographic features mimic the features on a human body and instead act as a map superimposed onto the doll. Overall, I'm quite happy with it.
