Description Final portrait of Perseus and his shield.

I used mainly HB pencil for the figure, and charcoal for the shield, that I stomped to make it a little bit shiny.

I remember you telling me where you got the image, but as I was thinking about it I would never envision Perseus looking like that! In some ways he looks more monstrous than Medusa. And perhaps he was.

Nietsche: "Beware of slaying monsters, lest you become one yourself."
