Clam Bam


In my last post, I mentioned that the walls of Carlos' and my apartment need more art -- so I made some!

I was inspired by another artist (Sidney Pink) in the color and style of this picture I made to gussy up my bare walls. Pink makes light pastel paintings of school girls playing video games and I decided to instead have an otter playing the arcade game "Clam Bam." I think the object of this game is to break clams on rocks that otters hold on their tummies. Unfortunately, this is a river otter (not a sea otter) and he's not very adept at breaking clams in this manner -- he prefers crawfish.
