I
have sent in two drawings here for the "Tribute to Frank Frazetta
Group Art Exhibition". These two drawing are inspired from the
thought of Franks love of action and of beautiful women in the
moonlight. My plan is to take these two drawing and put them into
their own oil painting; the only slight modifications that might take
place will be generally compositional in nature to support the flow of
the picture.
One
of my all time favorite pictures was I believe is referred to as "The
Moons Capture" by Frank Frazetta, where a young maiden stands in the
tree tops gazing at the moon. My idea "The Moon and the Swordswoman”
will hopefully convey the way he painted beautiful and strong women. The
pale blue moon light upon a woman warrior deep in thought and resting
upon her sword. Again not much in the way of the concept will change
the possible exceptions of changing the moon size and some surrounding
for the composition.
I
have been painting for about 5 year as an amateur and was majorly
inspired by Frazetta and Boris since I was a child. These two masters
of painting really were the ones to spur me to take up the craft of Oil
painting, so in tribute of Frank Frazetta it’s my hope to try and bring
out his style of painting in what I have learned in studying his work
for so many years. I doubt any one will ever capture a painting quite
like Mr. Frazetta's but then where would the world of Fantasy Art be
today without his famous work.
