Description I've been interested in the wendigo myth lately -- a malevolent spirit that can possess people and drive them to cannibalism. I'm painting a few studies, and if I'm still interested, may turn this into a whole series, something like what I did with the tree-people.

This guy turned out more insectile, but my goal is more of a tree branches reminiscent of antlers look.

I thin what I love most about your work is that you mix rendered areas with flat areas of color and it all flows together so well.

Now to keep from using that technique when I'm feeling lazy and wanting to avoid hands or feet.
