Kyle's Daily Paintings FINAL WEEK.... MONKEYS!
When I was little, I was "Little Monkey". In high school, I carried around a toy monkey. The chicks dug him, and I dug the pun of them playing with my monkey. That aside, I have grown up. kinda. now I paint monkeys. I do this in hopes that it opens up the viewer, allowing them to confront ideas and emotions and humor through their imagination, opening them up this way allows the visual to reach a deeper level.
Enough artsy mumbo-jumbo. I like monkeys. Deal with it.
" Barrel O' "
14" x 11" x 1.5", oil on canvas, all sides are painted, signed on back
SOLD
Curiosity didn't just kill the cat. Curiosity also turned the monkeys into red plastic toys. Beware of the red barrel! (unless you are a big ape, in which case... feel free to chuck them at Mario).
and here is a detail of the painting:

I totally had a red barrel full of plastic monkeys - or rather my Papa and Grandma had a red barrel full of plastic monkeys that was always on a little table in the "TV" room in their little house, for me (and Michael) to play with while "watching" the news with Grandma.
Why are a barrel of monkeys such a treat???? I like that your monkeys are curious about the barrel. Not an entrapment - a PLAYHOUSE FULL OF SURPRISES AND OTHER MONKEYS TOO. Woohoo!!!
