Recognisable characters are presented as both entire beings and a unique combination of shapes, patterns and colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e This piece is influenced by the ever-bossy Lucille ‘Lucy’ van Pelt character from Charles M. Schulz’s \u003cem\u003ePeanuts \u003c\/em\u003ecomic strip. John adds: “This is about showing the bold personality and range of things Lucy would try, even if failure was imminent. That ability to press on no matter the consequence was a trait I admired as a kid, and even now. Yes, I admire a cartoon character!”\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"John McCormack","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56599833575773,"sku":"JMC-ORI-POR-18222","price":10313.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0883\/1906\/6461\/files\/jmc-rats-web.jpg?v=1745939930","url":"https:\/\/www.castlefineart.com\/en-au\/products\/john-mccormack-john-mccormack-rats","provider":"Castle Fine Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
