Druid Priest + Artist Statement

 


Artist Statement
"The Druid Priest" wasn't planned but a happy accident, the cloth around my model(Juliet) was to express a divine goddess from olden lore and historic art that would be seen in Roman time.

The shot was from the dealers prospective to show both sides of the series. The Martini is called the “Vesper” which is the love of Bonds life and the spilled over Martini shaker is to represent her death and the chips that come out of it show how he always puts the mission before his companions and haunts him for the rest of the series. Keeping with the theme of the “spy world” I chose to use a puzzle with missing pieces (displayed on the antagonist side) to show that there is no clear knowledge of what the group wants and Bond needs to find the pieces of the puzzle to complete hi...
