English Final Project


So, for my Honors English class, we're allowed to do pretty much anything for our final project that incorporates what we've learned. We read a lot of classics (Odyssey, Metamorphoses, Agamemnon, Aeneid, Lais de Marie, ect.) and so I'm doing a three-panel art piece of Clytemnestra from Aeschylus'  Oresteia. My original plan was to go "man, woman, and king." The above is the woman piece, ie: she acts like a man, she is a king, but she's still a woman. I'm trying to develop the other two better, so I've been getting some ideas. Here they are:


Tamara de Lempicka

Another Tamara de Lempicka

Gustav Klimt

John Singer Sargent

Gustav Klimt

The second panel is in the style of Tamara de Lempicka and the third hopefully will be Gustav Klimt. That depends a bit on if I can get my paints from home. I just have watercolors and colored pencil here now. The Tamara-style thing is in colored pencil.
