Caryatid – head to head

by Alex Ledante September 16, 2018, 3:53 am 304 Views 9 Votes 15 Comments

Here is the last show piece I am doing for the Dia de los Muertos run this year, just a girl in catrina makeup in a graveyard, standing before a caryatid. Not a lot going on, but it seems like there is something happening on a psychological level. What do you think so far?

#1 work in progress

this treatment does a lot for the girl but it hurts the statue. might have to split the difference or I'll be robbing Peter to pay Paul

Not to mention a proper mental attitude of “I can do it.”

    That is true since being happy means more energy.

You are correct since that way I can focus on the goals I have set.

#3 raw image

In this version I've punched up her eyes and even though it doesn't brighten up her face at all, it LOOKS like her face is brighter. So that's a relief...

The theme song of Thriller was very scary to listen to as well as the those lines on the screen.

  Thriller, Alfred Hitchcock Presents, Outer Limits and Twilight Zone were all well written psychological horror. Nobody writes like that anymore…

I know what you mean since shows do have their runs and change into something worse.

  I am reminded of Ovid’s description “Their faces were not all alike, nor yet unlike, but such as those of sisters ought …”
