For personal pleasure and collector commissions, Gist often
paints the classic creatures, with a decided preference for Frankenstein’s
Monster. He has produced a number of stunning portraits of Boris Karloff and
Glenn Strange in The Monster’s makeup.
Gist’s interpretations are disturbingly realistic. Here,
caught in oils, The Monster stares balefully, his mottled skin suggesting an
uncanny, dangerous creature poised between unholy life and delayed death. Here
is another interpretation of Karloff’s Frankenstein Monster, illustrating the
steps towards a finished painting.
Erik M.Gist is also a Senior Instructor with the Watts Atelier of the Arts in Encinitas, California. See more art by Gist on DeviantArt, his website and blog.
