As promised, here is the gorgeous painting by Rubens entitled Tereus Confronted With the Head of His Son Itylus depicting the climactic scene in the story of Tereus, Philomela, and Procne. Enjoy!

About Me
- Christina Nelson
- Hi, I'm a studio art major with a focus in drawing. Currently, I'm working on images combining images of the natural world with images of the human body or its structures within. My work is layered, working mostly in vellum at the moment with some on arches white cover paper or colored murano, and I'm just starting to experiment with dry pigments. In all my work,I want to synthesize seeming opposites, body and nature, graphic line and subtle shading, wet and dry media, to effect greater harmony and depth of meaning.
