El Gloominator is the cartoon equivalent of a blockbuster movie. The monumental, 40-foot high, floor-to-ceiling mural depicts a humongous, pea-green blob dramatically plunging – against a cataclysmic sky – into an undulating sea of turquoise-blue, intestine-like forms. The mural was designed for the Lightwell Gallery and places emphasis on special effects and action-packed scenarios.
