ANT DANCE

I decided that it was time I tried a "Dot" painting, similar in style to aboriginal art work. The inspiration for this work came about because of an ant invasion of our caravan while we were at Laura in FNQ. The reason for the trip up there was to see the rock art in the area, so with the local art getting me thinking and the little buggers running through the van it seemed like the appropriate topic for my Dot painting. Each ant is an individual and I chose the red and green ants as they were the ones that had taken a liking to us. Hope you like it.
