i’m jealous of kellesimone waits

What’s Your Power Animal?… American artist Kellesimone Waits wants to know. Hm, ok, I’m going to go with flamingo. I don’t know why, it just seems right. Anywho, these delicate, washy, slightly bizarre images {gouache and blak sumi ink on watercolor paper} are from her latest solo show, titled, you guessed it, What’s Your Power Animal, at Fuse Gallery in New York. Unfortunately it just closed earlier this week – sorry! I totally dropped the ball on that one… maybe it was the flamingo in me? It’s very difficult for flamingos to hold balls, no?

    These are wonderful! I think my power animal is a hippopotamus.

    These are fabulous. How does one get talent like that? Great. Now I’m jealous, too. Perhaps my Power Animal is a typical, jealous house pet.

    Being raised by Tom Waits, I would expect nothing less. Fantastic work.
