Surreal Landscape with Floating People

Creator: Shaleen Pedersen
Offered by: Robert Funk Fine Art

Description
Playboy Female Illustrator Shaleen Pedersen paints a surreal landscape stuffed with a plethora of faceless people, devoid of eyes, mouths, or noses. Yet, they are fully dressed in the uniforms of their profession or in their traditional cultural dress. Some are anchored to the ground. Others are depicted at attention, motionless, rising like lighter-than-air balloons into the sky. Unsigned
