Medusa

Well, I've been promising folks I'd put up something new, and so now I'm in a position to finally deliver on that. Of course, I did this one seven years ago, but still...

The whole point of this was to create a fairly beautiful face that had some downright disturbing eyes--eyes that are hard to look at. As I recall, I originally drew them intentionally much too large for the face and very, very bloodshot, and I found that it completely banished the beauty in other facial features and shape, so I let it sit for a while until a different plan for the eyes showed up.

I've also had a lot of fun with this, practicing some digital alterations on the drawing with Photoshop, and some of them are pretty cool.

More coming this week! Now to try and get caught up on my inbox...

Enjoy!
