Point Pleasant, West Virginia

Teagan White

Part two of a triptych for The VACVVM "V1" group show. These are my interpretations of three different cryptids (animals or beings whose existence is disputed or rejected by biologists, but have been cataloged in the folkloric record through rumors, sightings, and anecdotal accounts). The Mothman: A massive and allegedly supernatural winged creature with glowing red eyes seen around West Virginia in the 1960s; some have compared these reports to descriptions of a particularly large Night Heron. Gouache & watercolor on paper with metallic gold gouache accents.
