Distinguishing
|
Singa
|
|
Singa "Cameleon" This mug is amazing in color depending on light & reflection it appears to be any color between olive green, gray, teal and purple. In this photo it seems definitely purple & teal. In incandescent home light it looks rather hunter & olive green. I have no idea how Paul Nielsen processed this color but it is truly amazing. Singa reminds me of an elephant

This is Paul Nielsen of Munktiki's interpretation of Singa. Singa is a mythical creature of the Indonesian Batak people who live in the mountains in Sumatra. Although the name means "lion", it resembles no living creature. Its representation, generally confined to the head, is the synthesis of several superior forms of creation and its appearance varies between the buffalo and a distorted human figures. The edition is limited to 100 pieces of varying colors. This version has a "Chameleon" exterior that, depending on light & reflection, appears to be any color between olive green, gray, teal and purple.
