Ogre

This is a picture dating from my Middle School years, so that would put it about '77-78. It's peculiar among my pictures as taking place in contemporary times (notice the human's clothes) and for the fact that it is lightly colored, not my usual style. This type of Ogre, with it's dead-white flesh, wormy blue veins, and lustrous purple eyes set the model for the Ogre race in the epic, unfinished fantasy novel that my brother John and I worked on, called Goldfire.
