When Howard Homunculus showed up at figure drawing class...


 ...the screams could be heard throughout the school. (Poor Howard! It was the size of his feet that shocked 'em.) 

Note: after I made the collage I checked out the images of homunculus I found online and realized he did NOT also have big feet, but that is okay...at least my version looks somewhat balanced! AND yesterday I heard about a recent sighting of BIG FOOT or Sasquatch in the Pacific Northwest and I guess I had that creature on my mind!

Homunculus

 

A creature I have created from creatures from Dr Who…

Homunculous.....................................Jarred Imp

I was lucky enough to find the jar in a childrens book about hobbies recently. It was for a simple aquarium I think but handy for collages about homunculi too!

Theme Of The Week........................Homunculus

During medieval and early modern times, it was thought that a homunculus, an artificial humanlike being, could be created through alchemy. The homunculus first appears by name in alchemical writings attributed to Paracelsus (1493–1541). We love "Small Prophets" TV series and this is the basis for this weeks theme.
