I’ve Created a Monster!

Since I had so much fun sculpting & painting Lovecraft, I turned around and whipped up a little Frankenstein’s monster.

Hopefully I captured enough of the hallmarks of the famous 1931 Boris Karloff depiction that this caricature hits the mark.

Frankenstein’s monster was a challenge. Of course that means I learned a good deal.

I found the hair particularly difficult. I wanted thick, animal-like hair. I think I may have made him look too much like a shampoo ad spokesperson!

He’s a funny little fellow. My wife pointed out that I gave him my nose. Should be fun to paint!
