These three sketches from my sketch book are the original scafolding (I dont think thats not spelled right) for three paintings I am currently working through in Lori's painting II class. The series is based on a monstrous creature (who is very naughty) a knightly-type (who is also naughty in his own violent way) and a clash of the two characters. The knight can be seen with a boar-head helm whereas the monster can be seen with a bald head and a naked distorted body. I drew inspiration for this theme from the story of beawulf (or wolf?) and the novel based on beowulf called "Grendel". Two artists I looked into were Goya (Saturno) and Munch (Puberty and Madonna). I would be happy to put up links to these pieces but I am on an un-familiar computer and I cant seem to make my link-things work. If I have left any questions unanswered feel free to ask and feel free to check out the progress of the paintings! Thanks all! PS everyones stuff looks awesome. -Chimbo
