Artist's Comments

Corel Painter IX;
Acrylics, broad wheel airbrush, pepper spray airbrush;
"Avarice" from the "Hannibal" soundtrack by Hans Zimmer



"It occured to Dr Lecter in the moment that with all his knowledge and intrusion, he could never entirely predict her, or own her at all. He could feed the caterpillar, he could whisper through the chrysalis; what hatched out followed its own nature and was beyond him."




Clarice Starling as I envision her through Thomas Harris' words.


This piece is currently being translated to canvas :)


Thank you for looking!

:heart:

Classy dame!

Really enjoyed the whole process, especially how she took form, resembled molding clay.

I think it matches what you talk about when you bring up the books and what not. She does seem to be
a bit timid in this painting, her eyes seem timid.

It's a beautiful painting.

Clarice, facing darkness...
One of the great literary heroines, beautifully visualized.

Wonderful! I really love that almost grainy look which I suppose is from the airbrush? Great lighting too - love your interpretation =)

:) Always thought it was pretty cool and messed up of her to be so enamored with cannibals :P Now it just makes me think (sometimes) of that one line from Sin City: I know it's pretty damn weird to eat people.

I don't really know :) about the timidness. I just painted what I was feeling, the feeling I get from her. I'm just happy you like her :hug:
