Marshall Woodall
"Special Spiders" Outsider Art in Acrylic and Pen on Paper

2019

About the Item

Surreal depiction of a cityscape by Marshall Woodall (American, b. 1958). The city is in the distance, with a large construction crane towering overhead. A yellow and orange path leads towards the city. On the path, there is a box labeled "Special Spiders" - out of which spiders are crawling along the path towards the city. Unsigned, but acquired directly from the artist. Presented in a new light grey mat with foamcore backing. Mat size: 22"H x 28"W Image size: 13.5"H x 18.5"W Marshall Woodall (b. 1958) was born in Oklahoma City, OK. Woodall’s fascination with art began at an early age. His life has been a journey into self-expression and storytelling through music, drawing, and painting. ‘‘I am off the wall and have an unusual imagination. I think about things that people don’t always think about or notice.’’ Self-taught but inspired by Gary Larson, Mr. Woodall uses humorous, and satirical pieces to handle life’s struggles. Being chased, pressured, and meeting deadlines are common themes in his work. ‘‘Discovering how to express myself is my objective.’’ Woodall’s piece ‘‘Terror in Doctor Grisdale’s Office’’ was featured at the California Museum of Art’s ‘‘Art Advocacy’’ exhibition in 2017. Marshall Woodall is a member of The Claraty Arts Project, an arts program, studio and gallery in Santa Cruz committed to the equality and empowerment of people with developmental and intellectual disabilities.

Throughout the piece, there are hidden faces in the buildings.
