Robin Redcap, goblin fiend. Captured at Hermitage castle, Scotland.
as usual I wanted to create a sense of realism, a feral, dirty, ragged goblin who lived by eating rats and insects in the cellar of old Scottish castle. Caught and enshrined century's ago.
I tried to go as far from fantasy as I could and more towards folklore and old forgotten fairytales, partly inspired by Hieronymus Bosch paintings and Inca mummy's.
He is awesome! I can picture his trail of mischief.
ReplyDeleteWow, stunning work. Creepy and beautiful.

ReplyDeletewhy did it have to be me I don't believe the stitches but it said somethink perhaps the curator is that way inclined however, its of no concern ... just the way it comes across seems a little to down to earth
ReplyDeletePro tip: Unless there's a sign that says, "Please be brutally critical of my art because all that matters is how it comes across to you!", just keep scrolling. Why did it have to be you? It didn't. Nobody made you comment and it really is none of your concern. I realize this is an old comment, but still.
