The Monster of Columbus
9" x 12" Ink on Bristol Board
For this project I looked into the people and the land that makes Columbus. I used a Buckeye tree as my monster, using reference from nature and also from the mythological creature of treants. From their I added a bird resembling that of a cardinal and added a tapper, creating sort of a beer tap in the place of a syrup tapper to represent the breweries that make up Columbus. Lastly I added an Ohio State symbol on his chest to represent the sports side of Columbus.
