I finally started three ORMMALING Paintings. Ormmaling is my (Forensic) Entomological spin on ROSEMALING.. This is an idea I‘ve been playing with since it first showed up in my sketchbooks in 2014– rosemaling floral elements as maggots and other arthropods of medicolegal interest.

I‘ve started the skulls and next I will paint the classic (and not so classic) c-strokes and s-strokes, etc. that make the floral elements of rosemaling— and now ormmaling! I’m also working on a painting that I’ve titled “Momento mori norvegicus”. I’ll share it soon.

These two are part of a series I’m doing that is also inspired by rosemaling strokes and colors.

I’m imagining other worlds, and their flora and fauna.
