A field of dahlias climb the surface of this surreal landscape titled "Dahlia Web". A spider has woven its web through the field in the hopes of attracting any flying passer-by. The painting is framed in a simple white wooden frame measuring 19.75 x 31.5 inches.

Taking a cue from celebrity publicity headshots, artist Rick Pas presents us with "The Comic Wood Duck". The duck takes on human characteristics, as if laughing at the camera, its colorful plumage set off by the pink backdrop. This piece is framed in a simple black frame measuring 15 x 15 inches. Rick Pas The Comic Wood Duck acrylic on panel 12h x 12w in 30.48h x 30.48w cm RPA018 ARTIST'S STATEMENT Creating is an addiction. With all the highs and lows you would expect. I am interested in the surface textures and creating paintings that portray them in realistic detail. Hopefully a viewer will feel they can run a hand over the feathers and moss, or grasp an object in the painting. This detail is usually composed in an abstract design. The design can occur naturally or be arranged by me.
