Beetlejuice + pastiching famous art
Its sunday morning and I’m waiting for the bathroom to be free so I’ll just make a post about the famous paintings/drawings/illustrations I’d like to pastiche for fanart purposes. I’m a big art history nerd and these are very fun to make.
Stańczyk, by Jan Matejko, 1862
Any sad jester pic would fit Beetlejuice’s vibe I think. I imagine him right after the ending of the Musical, being all sad and lonely while the Deetz-Maitland family reunites in the right corner.
Lady with an Ermine, Leonardo Da Vinci, 1489–1491
I just picture movie Lydia in goth-renaissance garb holding the nasty Beetlejuice snake like a pet. It would look dope.
Two Satyrs, Peter Paul Rubens, 1618-1619
I dare you to look at that ravenous, mischievous expression, those fingers gently squeezing the transluscent grapes, and tell me this does nothing for you. I mean, to each their own, of course, but it does something for me, and I’d love to emulate that expression in a Beetlejuice drawing.
Aaaaand I think that’s all for now. If you have suggestions in the same vein please feel free to share them, come be a nerd with me!!
