Disguise

Disguise works two ways in this illustration. It's a self portrait. So you could say I'm disguised as Snow White. And as we all know the witch or in this case gorilla is misrepresenting the true nature of the apple. It's poison! I think I've posted this one for http://www.illustrationfriday.com/ before. But if I play along every week there are bound to be repeats. This illustration was part of my nightmare themed sketchbook project for Art House Co-op. An apple a day does NOT keep the gorillas away.

Fascinating. The Gorilla looks so benign. So beware?

We love the colour and the look on Gorilla's eyes!

Indeed, it does not! I'm not sure what keeps them away! Wonderful take on this week's prompt.

Self portrait? Did you dream this one, Sharon? I just love your art, you are so talented, and I agree that the gorilla does look benign. Goes to show you can't judge a gorilla by the shine of his coat. :-)
