Orpheus

I am constantly experimenting and changing the way I approach my work. Here I did a traditional drawing then I traced it over on to a board by making cheap photocopies of the original drawing. Here are some of the images of the work so far.










    

What is the story of Orpheus?
Overcome with grief, Orpheus travels to the Underworld to bring her back to life. He convinces Hades and Persephone to let Eurydice go, but her release comes with a catch: Eurydice must walk behind him as they ascend to the upper world, andOrpheus is forbidden from looking at her.
