“The Big Bad Wolf” new painting


“The Big Bad Wolf” by Frank Forte Mixed Media 2014 Dimension: 8" X 10" Framed Dimension: 10.5" X 13" Retail price: $300 Exhibition history-never been shown © Frank Forte 2014 “The Big Bad Wolf” Nothing has terrorized young children more than “The Big Bad Wolf”. Here my goal was to deliver an image of the wretched canine devil as would be seen in a child’s dream after hearing a story read to him from an old musty storybook.

“Triclops” new painting


“Triclops” by Frank Forte Mixed Media 2014 Dimension: 8" X 10" Framed Dimension: 10.5" X 13" Retail price: $300 Exhibition history-never been shown © Frank Forte 2014 The Cyclops has been an adversary of heroes for thousands of years. Since the time of Myth this creature has terrified the minds of storytellers from the young and the old. My Triclops takes the myth further in in creating a bastardized mutant of the form. In my journey of interpreting images into classic cartoons from the golden age, my image of Triclops takes the form of a lost title card from a 1930’s cartoon.
