Description
there isn't anyone to help you. only me. and i'm the Beast.pig's head on a stick.
you knew, didn't you? i'm part of you? close, close, close! i'm the reason why it's no go? why things are what they are?
my poor, misguided child, do you think you know better than I do? do you. see?
fsksgkjg my weekend painting for my pictures&words class *O* we were supposed to "use text as a jumping off point" so I chose to do something inspired by Lord of the Flies since I love that book and have yet to draw something based off of it >>
.. I'm not sure if that boy was meant to be a Simon or a Jack. << uhm. it would mean different things depending so. you guys can choose.
done in acrylics <3

Your picture is just amazing. Being inspired by the book, I could not tear from her eye is really a very long time. In the picture as if there is its soul. It is fascinating and a little scary
Thank you very much for this

Ваша картина просто потрясающая. Находясь под впечатлением от книги я не могла оторвать от нее взгляд действительно очень долго. В картине как будто есть своя душа. Это завораживает и немного пугает
Спасибо большое за это

It was meant to be Simon. I have a feeling that the symbolism in that is that there is evil in all of us, and the Lord Of The Flies represents the devil. When Simon hallucinates about the LOTF saying "I'm part of you", I think it symbolizes the evil that only he could see in the other boys... the beastie.
Did that make sense?
Judging by this picture, you are an excellent painter.

I LOVE THIS! It's incredible, the kind of thing that I would do if I had tried to put together a piece of fanart for this amazing book. Really nice job, especially on the pig's gorey details and how they collide with the innocent child's hands.

that's definitely simon for me. kind of like he comes back to life though after being murdered. you've really captured the essence of the story, where innocents are splattered in blood.
It looks fantastic!
