I'm calling it! It's time for a new project. I'm happy with it, and if I end up adding more into it down the road, so be it. If not, that's how it is.
Citizen Kong! Citizen Kane meets King Kong, in the Planet of the Apes (Just hinted at by the half-buried Statue of Liberty outside the window. Scale is less obvious in this piece without small Planet of the Apes people around to mourn, and the Empire State is not super obvious in the snow globe, but I hope the painting of Fay Wray and the title do enough to give the viewer a keen idea of what this mash-up is about.
The story in my head, is of Kong, rejected by the people of earth, travels far, far away to where he is unknown, but to where among people more like him, he is allowed to rise from obscurity to staggering heights (more than physically). To the people of the Planet of the Apes, he is a mystery. Only small clues and his dying words lead them into an investigative journey of his mysterious past.
Now I need to focus on a few new pieces.My cats-replacement project, where I replace characters in iconic scenes with cats. My Iliad series, the closest to classical poesie that I've gotten, and everything unfinished in my midst. But first, comedy and clown festival. Whee!
