This took a while to make, but I can officially call it the last piece I will make before entering my senior year at PNCA.
Basically my take at how the morals of fairy tales should be. We shouldn’t keep ourselves blind and helpless, we should take control. In the original story the wolf is a symbol for predators--not in the animal sense but in the sexual one. And if you remember the girl gets tricked numerous times and is eventually eaten. I just wanted to draw a very calm woman holding the leash of a very ravenous wolf.
edit: If you see it as something about humans controlling animals--then you must see little red riding hood about how animals can fool you into being eaten. They're symbols, not literal.
This is great! Will you be doing any of the other fairy tales? I think it would be really fun to see your take on the various other morals in these stories.
This is beautiful. I love reinterpretations of Red Riding Hood in general, and ones in which Red either defeats the wolf or controls it are some of my favorites.
