Don't Look Under the Bed!



I do a lot of in- class demos for my illustration classes at RIT and I tend change the theme from time to time. Here are a few examples from a classic monster theme that I was working with a few years ago. Of course I was working from classic Hollywood stills in B & W and I just made up my own backgrounds and color schemes. These were 9 x 12 mixed media demonstrations. The Wolfman and Frankenstein. I used to watch these old movies when I was a little kid. They were originally filmed in the 1930's and 40's but they ran regularly on Saturday afternoon T.V. in the 1960's. Monster Movie Matinee! These creatures gave me nightmares.
