Puckish

labyrinth or maze?
puckish on the hotter days;
now retrace your steps.

6" x 6"

140# cold-press watercolor paper

acrylic paint, Sharpie pen

puckish: mischievous; impish.

This piece was inspired by a trip to the most excellent Nelson Atkins Museum of Art. Up until then we’d never gone into the glass labyrinth in the Sculpture Park. There was a sign out front about it being a bit warm on the hotter days, which I thought was funny (it was maybe 70º that day).

The funnier part of this story was that my husband apparently didn’t know it was a labyrinth until we made it to the middle.
