Muybridge Dreaming
oil on canvas (triptych)

This triptych is my tribute to Edweard Muybridge. I got to know his work when I was studying animation. He was the guy that photographed all of these different animals and people doing things in front of a marked grid. The photographs are excellent reference material for artist and animators.

This painting is based on three photos from his work. I imagined that doing all of that work would be overwhelming and began to wonder what kind of things a man like that would dream about. What would he see in his sleep?
