The Blue Lobster, it’s estimated that only one in two million Lobsters is blue, the reason for this is that this rare ocean oddity is missing pigments from its DNA that would normally make them camouflaged a muddy red colour.

My Blue Lobster was inspired by one being caught here in the UK last month just down the road from me in Cornwall.

What an amazing find for that fisherman!

My lobster is reverse painted in deep blues with hints of turquoise and gilded in silver leaf.

Each of Danni’s pieces are original, unique and produced by Danni from start finish here in her studio. Each piece is inked, painted and gilded onto the reverse of toughened glass. After completion the piece is flipped over to reveal the artwork through the glass and framed in a deep frame, creating a gap between the artwork on the glass and the white backboard, which creates the shadow effect you can see behind the lobster giving the whole piece an almost 3D quality. These shadows can move and dance across the backboard when the piece is hung in natural light, like in a lovely bright room , but will look equally as good under spots or in any well lit space. Once evening comes the these pieces take on a whole new aspect as the metallic leaf radiates its own luminescence.
