Head Cheese, anyone?

Well here's my submission to this years "Flesh to Canvas" art show, being held this May 15th-30th.


It was a long time coming but I've finally gotten er to a point IM happy with it.

You may notice that that is my head on the platter. But the more astute viewer may notice that this was my wife, who was gracious enough to pose for me.

As for my mug here, it was very interesting doing a self portrait. Originally I was gonna go for a bloody, fresh kill. But as I worked the image up, I thought the texture of the fairly recently deceased was more fun.

All in all, done. Now for the framing. Hope she's well received at the show. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the work.
