grim girls

Returning to the girls from eyeontheprize, adding watercolour and some flies. Trying to communicate decay and vulnerability. When I have the time and means I plan to translate these into oil painting.

These works were a move toward illustration. I wanted to juxtapose a naive style with confronting subject matter, however these initial ideas lacked the impact that I was after. I still like them though.
