Sunday inspiration; Kevin Sloan

I found a new artist today on Pinterest. His name is Kevin Sloan and he makes paintings inspired by natural history art and the sense of wonder and curiosity found in the old Cabinets of Curiosities. He says that our natural world today is increasingly threatened, making it once again rare and exotic. His work is often filled with questions and through allegory and symbolism he expresses his concern about the relationship between the modern world and nature and it's inhabitants. His original paintings cost a lot, but you can buy prints for around 100 USD online!
