Fallen from Olympus IV
Number 4 in the series. I was keen to use one of the Dance of Death postcards, and this one being the most explicit dance seemed right. I also wanted to revisit the woman in the floral dress from Pictures at an Exhibition. They seemed to call for each other. She seemed one of the more... robust figures I'd drawn in an exhibition context, so I felt she would stand up to the picture of Death. Also I felt the off-beat rhythm of the various elbows would work somehow. It has turned out to be something that has really worked for me.
