Number 20: flaming sword redux

I'm revisiting some content from about a year ago on this piece.

It was an icon to hang paint and materials on, and I wanted to see how it would look, given my current processes.

Wood, acrylic, epoxy, spray paint, sculpey, spackle

18"H. 5.5"W.

Imagery of Fantasy -- sword & shield

This is a two piece set I did about late January. I was experimenting with the look condition and materials I wanted to use going forward.

These are meant to be playful. Not shooting for high art or anything. They measure about 10" H. x 7" W. each.
Acrylic, Sculpey, and cell phone bling on wood.

Inspired by my memories of "The Legend of Zelda" video game from 20+ years ago.
The title is "Talisman series #4 & 5 -- flaming sword and shield"

Below are some images that I have found inspiring from the movie "Legend" by Ridley Scott. This is the scene where Tom Cruise finds the treasure chamber. In the background, a wonderful little melody by Tangerine Dream is playing. Very 1985.
