A sinuous vertical form rendered in vibrant lime green oil enamel on steel, this stylized creature sculpture embodies Van Earl's distinctive approach to animal abstraction. The composition features a gently undulating silhouette with a rounded head punctuated by a circular aperture, tapering segments that suggest segmented or scaled passages, and a series of evenly spaced rectangular voids that pierce the steel plane. The saturated yellow green palette and the interplay between solid form and negative space create a modernist sensibility grounded in totemic animal representation. The painted steel surface maintains a uniform matte finish that emphasizes the pure geometry and organic flow of the design, characteristic of Van Earl's CREATURES series.
