The idea behind this work is the stories surrounding the sirens of myth. These bird-women would seduce sailors with an intoxicating song, then murder the people drawn to them by the song. This is a test run for the underpainting. I'm trying to establish the lights and darks, and I hope to achieve a good balance of light and dark. I am going to paint this and submit it to a gallery show themed "Femme-Fatale".
