Kingdom

Kingdom is an original white and red abstract painting diptych on canvas by visual artist Shawn McNulty.

Fun Fact: This diptych portrays two distinct organic characters similar to my other diptych Bison. The character on the right side formed naturally and has two distinctive eyes and ears. You will notice this motif of dots/eyes in later works such as Rebo and Parrot. I nurtured the character on the left side by adding the ears to match the right. I see a mouse character which inspired the title Kingdom, as in Mickey Mouse and the Magic Kingdom. This painting was also around the same time as the Dismaland exhibit by Banksy.
