dance with the devil

ive been experimenting to find my perfect mr bearskinner. ive been inspired by themes such as metamorphisis, exagerrating forms,use of symbolic shapes, and the forest, so ive tryed to conjure these all up and produce what i thought the bearskinner would look like. i was intrigued by how he was described in the book. 'So began the first year the solider grew filthy and the bearskin stank...By the second year, he no longer looked like a man in a bearskin; he looked like a bear...By the third year he no longer looked like a bear but a monster.'

so i wanted to incorporate this idea of the bearskin taking over not only his life but his body.
