The Beast Within

A un-kilned clay bust. Entry for Bring Your Vision to Life Contest

This is a representation of the evil beast that lives in all of us. We are champions with in a world that values good above all else. Yet, beneath the blue eyes of a head held high, there lies a creature so hideous and cannibalistic; that suppression is our only escape. It is those who that exhibit the emotions of greed, want, corruption, and bequeath of violence that unleash that beast within. Even our most noblest of peoples have a more astonishing demons. For they are in the lime light of the stage. One slip up and all is lost.

I have deliberately used two colours of clay the dark (red) and the light (white) to distinguish between the two sides. note that the man has a laurel, a meaning of good. Were as the beast has horns and blood dripping from his mouth.
