Okay this is the 2nd part of a 4-part assignment (August) Assignment from Cennini Forum. Now to understand this Minotaur drawing assignment, you will have to visit the forum and read the "Minotaur Story" at:

A minotaur is a creature from mythology; a creature that is half human - half bull who is placed in a maze to contain the fierce creature. A warrior is sent with a sword and a ball of twine into the labyrinth to kill the minotaur. Part one of the assignment was teaching us how to combine - or morph - two un-related objects into one. On this part of the assignment we are to morph a man and a bull, tell a story, and express emotion.
I doubt if my story makes sense to anyone who hasn't read the myth. I made my minotaur without clothing and lots of hair and flesh. The drawing assignment is suppose to tell a story, express a feeling of depression, sadness, betrayal, entrapment, and impending doom.
I got the idea for the shadow from the forum's posted assignments ... so that was not an original idea however it was a good solution to simply the images. The assignment is also about composition but I think that will come in the final parts.
My attempt is okay but it could be much improved; there are much better solutions on the forum. However, I am learning something new with each assignment, and it is stimulating my thinking.
