Artist's Comments
Ok, Ok, I know.... It's not the normal Phantom of the Opera look. I wanted to try something different since it's over the Susan Kay version of the story. I wanted to make it look kind of like a circus "freak show" poster since Erik was a sideshow at one of those. It really messed him up badly and gave him a phobia of cages. I intended to make the floor look more like a pool of blood to represent that his first murder was to escape from the fair... (I wish I could have gotten the reflections in there that I wanted...*sigh*)
Anyway, the masks... welllll I really don't think I need to go into the symbolism of the masks... All, in all, i guess it was worth the time it took to draw it. I just hope that you guys like it! ^_^ |

 reports, 1d 11h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.

We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |
