Coming soon to a wasp plague near you: European Wasp Woman
The watercolour, Wasp
Woman was begun, but not quite completed, during my term as artist in
residence at the Art Vault in Mildura last December (see Blog Post Friday,
December 12, 2014).
After the residency ended, Christmas and all its attendant
distractions intervened, and then there were further insect women waiting
to be documented. It’s only now I’ve had a chance to add the finishing touches
to this homo-insecta and give the sting in her tail one last polish – just in
time for her to partake in the wasp plague currently upon us in Ballarat.
