Description

This one took some time, but was certainly worth the wait. I’m happy to post it for my final commission of 2025. I think it was almost a year between my initial request for Frank to do this piece and its arrival at my doorstep right before Christmas.

Frank went absolutely above and beyond on this illustration. It surpassed all of my expectations of what a mailed commission from him would be. It was originally just for one character that turned into two with background. I only asked Frank for a commission of Caroline Munro from The Golden Voyage of Sinbad. I set no parameters so this was entirely conceived from his own imagination.

Frank is a big Ray Harryhausen fan and threw in the One Eyed Centaur without my asking. He also decided to add in additional background to create this very dynamic scene of Caroline Munro hiding from the monster, like in the original film, which was a major bonus.

The composition of this piece that includes the use of heavy blacks to anchor it and make the lighter tones of both figures stand out among the shadows of the underground labyrinth. Frank’s talent at crosshatching to create textures and depth really shows in the rocks of the cavern - everything draws me into this amazing tribute to classic fantasy.
