"Tigerland" map


This is a map of India and Bangladesh, inspired by the article, Tigerland.  I was intrigued mostly about the people who live in the protected areas and the way they both loved and feared the tiger. They do not want such amazing creatures to die out but they also know that sharing the forest keeps them vunerable to attack. The Tiger reserves mentioned in the article are the Sariska Tiger Reserve, the Sundarbans Tiger Reserve and the Saznekhali Wildlife Santuary.

Reptile Reflections



I am very pleased with these experimental pieces. Both images are of a snake in a jar which is laying on a mirror. In the top piece of the pink snake (her name is Finale), the reflection doesn't read correctly but most people who have seen it don't care because of the colors. I think the second piece is more successful.
