For some reason around noon it was a little difficult to post additional photos of the variations on my Widespread Panic “Spring” poster.

Above you can see that the 8th color on the Copper Tortoise-shell Edition is a white to accent the eyes and teeth.

Below are two views of the Gold Foil Edition poster. Click to see these larger.

I made this poster as a companion piece to the Widespread Panic Milwaukee poster from last November.

My poster for Widespread Panic in November was primarily done in orange / red / yellow or Autumn colors.

–

This companion is in greens and light greens and green tinted gold evocative of Spring. The layered

explosion forms burst out of the background like plant-forms. I brought the background over the blue metallic

of the female figure in a very light transparent white and over her hair as a very very light ochre varnish.

–

I turned this figure toward the Autumn WSP, used the same size, proportion and framing to make this a beautiful compliment to the first piece.
