I thought that in monster society, they probably have portraits of their ancestors just like we do. I think this one might be from the early to mid-19th century. He's got little pointy teeth sticking out. They're too small to see well.
Its graphite and charcoal and was made for the wonderful Illustration Friday.

this is cool, my illustration also has little teeth! Youve definitly captured that historical element.
Very scary!!! Great illo!
Very elegant - I really like the portrait idea.
Very creative idea, and funny as well!
A fine Victorian painting. Didn't I see that painting in "Room with a View"? Or was is "Remains of the Day"?

This reminds me of a portrait that a friend has in her bedroom. Its very scary yet you can't help keep looking at it. Cool!
Thanks for visiting my site and finding Mo! You are the first one that actually found him :-)
this is great, what an original idea. it would be great to see more of the family tree.
Beautiful painting. I loved your plein air pieces too. I'll look for more of your work on IF.
