Art Description (What inspired you to create the artwork?) | My inspiration for this piece was the book JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Steel Ball Run. Specifically the character Diego "Dio" Brando. Diego is a 1800's horse jockey and antagonist within his story. His antihero characteristics and backstory are a wonderful read and always interesting every page we see him in. His Stand: "Scary Monsters" allows him to transform into a dinosaur at first against his will but later at his own discretion. Using the aspect of his ability being at first forced upon him and uncontrollable i wanted to lean into that mystery and horror. further inspiring me in this aspect was the song "Wolf Like Me" by TV On The Radio. With lyrics like "My mind has changed my body's frame but god I like it. My hearts aflame, my body's strained but god I like it." This interesting character and this amazing song combined into me creating this image using an officially licensed import figure and a background. The background was an open source image displayed and positioned on a screen. |
