Today I just have one update to make, as I've been busy with other portfolio related works and have been mostly in the plotting and brainstorming stages of art anywho.  Its also a little more rough around the edges than my usual works in progress, but I like to think that gives it charm.
This is a picture of Hel, who is the being who rules over the realm of Death in Norse mythology.  I really wanted to work on making a fun perspective piece, and I've been dying to make a picture of her for years.  She contains quite a bit of artistic interpretation, as the historical Hel is supposed to be half skeletal unhappy corpse and half woman but I like her odd bone-like markings.  The random lines framing her are where I intend to cut the picture off when I'm completed..after she's a bit more done of course.  The background still needs completed - I do tend to slack off on backgrounds, I think- but so far I'm really digging it.  Pillars seems like an appropriate addition for a death home, don't you think?
