Skiing Crocodile



Only Heinrich Kley could add such convincing life to this fantasy situation. A Croc skies downhill while a couple of Monkeys are looking on. As so often Kley challenges himself by portraying a character from an insane difficult angle. Why stage something conventionally when you are a master draughtsman ?!
I purchased this piece a little over 15 years ago on a trip to Munich/Germany. A local gallery was still selling "Left over Art" from Kley's estate. As I said before, Kley's art never gets old. It is fresh, funny, masterful and endlessly inspirational.

I've posted several times on Heinrich Kley in the past, here is one of those posts:
