A Monstrous Villa



The second of my 'monster' sketches from Villa Palagonia in
coloured pencil.


This is the other statue at the entrance of the Villa.  They are not really frightening and you can see much worse things on tv today,  but they were a creepy spectacle when the villa was built in 1705.
I would like to draw more of these and will make it a project for 2010, but I don't think I will be able to do all 62 of the remaining stone sculptures.



This is what the two statues look like at the entrance to Villa Palagonia.
See my sketch of the the other statue here
