I started this piece by just painting away without any sketches or preparation (which is something I don't normally do). I had no idea what the end result will be, and simply added ideas that popped into my head as I went along. I started with the teeth, then the weird bone frame, then the brain and so on. It was only after I completed the base creature that I came up with the idea to make it a parasite of sorts, so as to give meaning to the oversized brain... it takes control of deceased parts of a nervous system... to... walk around and defend itself? Kind of like a hermit crab but much more ... unsettling...



Anyway, I'm quite pleased with the result and really enjoyed doing this experiment!
