Monsterpiece Society
$47.00
Deep in the densely forested mountains of Romania, an old Gothic castle was recently discovered. Once owned by an eccentric old count, the castle had been boarded up for over a century and had fallen into ruin…
Until recently, when a joint team from the Transylvania Historical and Archaeological Societies petitioned to have it reopened so that they could begin restoring the castle. Much to the delight of local art historians, a rare art collection — the likes of which have never been seen before — was discovered!
And now, it is our honor to share with you and your kids this special collection of “monsterpieces”. We are affectionately calling it the Monsterpiece Society.
Meet the monsterpieces we’ll recreate:
(1) Bona Lisa
Considered an archetypal monsterpiece of the Transylvanian Renaissance, the subject’s enigmatic expression makes it difficult to tell if she is actually smiling, seeing as she has no lips.
(2) The Howl
The werewolf recalled that he had been out for a walk at sunset when suddenly the setting sun’s light turned the clouds a blood red and as the full moon rose he sensed an infinite howl passing through nature.
(3) Boo Boy
The Boo Boy is a full-length portrait of the son of a wealthy hardware merchant. It was painted as a historical costume study soon after he departed this mortal coil, thus why it features his bright blue suit.
(4) The Legend of Sleepy Kahlo
The Legend of Sleepy Kahlo is a self-portrait, which includes a spiderweb necklace and a bat on her shoulder. The artist painted this piece right after she lost her head.
(5) Ghoul with a Pearl Earring
This ghoulish girl wears an exotic dress and a turban, so old that the fabric has become worn and frayed. Yet even after all these years, her pearl earring is still in pristine condition.
