This is my contribution to this week's DPW's "The Superstition Challenge" posted by Gwen Duda.
We were challenged to do a painting based on a superstition.
A cricket in the house is supposed to be good luck. Here, boy....I need all the luck I can get!
I love to hear their song.

He looks so real, great job. They drive me crazy when they get in, I'll have to remember to tell myself that's good luck.
ReplyDeleteYeesh; I hate bugs, Dean! Still and yet, you've managed to highlight this...ahem...beauty? As bugs go, he is a gorgeous one!
ReplyDeleteinteresting subject....I think I remember hearing that about crickets being good luck! I like to hear them too...but only on the outside of the house...haha..nice painting!
ReplyDeleteGreat strong contrast. And a fun positive superstition!
ReplyDeleteLooks too real, Dean! Glad it means good luck, because I just saw one last week in my basement!! With the Hurricane coming, I'll need it!
ReplyDeleteI really like this one. The contrast is really working quite well. Nice job.
