Artist's Comments

These are two posters meant to fashionably illustrate the vice Greed and the corresponding virtue, Charity. An assignment for Lifestyle class :) The originals are for 18x24 posters, which is nice, since I like to work big :heart:

Ink and Photoshop.

I love this! Such a fun take on the concept. Of course, I do have a soft spot for dragons. :) I like how the woman who's yelling about the charity people is in both posters.
:iconcupil:
The image has a wonderful flow with it in that gold dragon. I also really like the choice of manifesting the wealth in this form. The charitable people are on the ass-end, in the background, can go unappreciated and possibly criticized (like what the complaining lady is doing.) But then again, all the wealthy folk have the part with teeth and horns.

You're welcome.

I particularly like your mythologically related work and how it captures it in such a blunt light. The depiction of the Apollo myth( where he skins the flutist alive) was shocking to me.:omg:

I had never heard of that story until I saw that work. I will never think of Apollo the same way again.

I really love the maids cleaning the dragon, for some reason.

Well, thank you very much XD I have a little...TOO much fun reinterpreting mythology like that, but it's true that Apollo was very bizarrely brutal. It really interests me how callously the story goes, even in the original version. I keep having to stop myself, thinking "Wait, WHAT? He LOST a music competition to you so you SKIN HIM ALIVE? WHAT? Apollo, WHAT??"
Conclusion: He must be a psycho nut.

Perhaps it was punishment for daring to challenge a god. It's still no excuse however.
