BEAUTY: Painting--Paul Reid
Scottish painter Paul Reid infuses classicism and Greek mythology with a subtle contemporary sensibility that is hard to define. I love these images of humans with animal heads. There are many myths of humans with animal heads like the Minotaur, or humans turning into animals, such as Actaeon, both seen below.
