A white page scattered with creatures, each cut down to its plainest shape: a brown buck with full antlers in the middle, a green parrotfish, a red seahorse curling its tail, a manatee, a scarlet crab, a beaver, an alligator and a sea turtle, with an octopus, a bat, a pine cone and the root fan of a mangrove filling the gaps. Charley Harper never draws a feather or a scale he can suggest with a line instead.
The animals are quick (one colour, one silhouette), but they float on bare white, and it is those blank pieces that make up the last hour. Finished size 61 x 45.7cm.
Many distinct, colourful animal figures on a white background provide clear shape cues, though the scattered layout and white space add some challenge.
