Wasted Time 24" round - Limited Edition by Pete Tillack
"Wasted Time"
24" Round Limited Edition Artist Proof by Pete Tillack
Pete Tillack’s "Wasted Time" captures a moment rich with symbolism and introspection, drawing inspiration from Aesop's fable, The Fox and the Raven. This piece portrays a clever fox and a raven in an intriguing face-off, with a pocket watch between them symbolizing the fleeting nature of time. The fox, donning aviator goggles, gazes at the raven, evoking a sense of mischief and cunning, while the raven’s fixed stare conveys an air of pride and caution.
Tillack’s artist statement sheds light on the deeper meaning behind the work, reflecting on the themes of ego and trust. He highlights how the raven’s downfall in the fable stemmed from succumbing to flattery and self-worth, leading to a loss—a lesson on the importance of not wasting time on ego-driven pursuits. In this scene, Tillack invites viewers to consider their own vulnerabilities and the distractions that may pull them away from true purpose.
This limited edition round giclée on canvas is an artist-proof edition, with only 145 in existence. Each piece is artist-embellished, bringing added texture and detail, and is signed and numbered by Tillack, making it a prized addition to any collection.
With its bold composition and insightful message, "Wasted Time" serves as both a visual delight and a philosophical reminder to focus on what truly matters, rather than the fleeting allure of ego and flattery.
