Alligator in Waterlilies

An alligator waits patiently. Smiling to herself and enjoying the swamp. Do alligators or crocodiles stop to smell the flowers? This image is exactly the right size to go over a sofa or bed. An interesting conversation starter, the artwork will lend intriguing charm to any room. Pyrography (wood burning) on sustainably harvested American Cherry. Tinted with transparent oil paint. The cherry slab is attached to a piece of salvaged red cedar that has been charred almost black. Both pieces of wood are sealed with food-safe cutting board oil.

The alligator has floated off to a new home! Congratulations to her new owner!
