Georges Bielec - La hyène, 1969.

[uncannyfantastic]

Artist is Guido Crepax, not Georges Bielec.

Bielec was a prolific editor of sexy BD series -- this is a cropped image of the cover of the first issue of La Hyene, January 1969. La Hyene was published by Idees Images and ran for 5 issues in 1969.

The character depicted is Crepax's most famous character, the photographer/sex kitten Valentina.

‘Of the Heavens’ — watercolor & mixed media on paper

This my first painting I created for my recent exhibition, ‘Fables’. I’ve always had a fascination for folktales around the world. These stories have always sparked wonder in my imagination as a kid, so I wanted to create my own personal interpretation of a few fabled creatures with respect to the traditions, symbology and legends where they come from. The first that came to mind was that of the Dragon, a creature prevalent throughout a lot of East Asian cultures and often symbolic of power, fortune and the divine. So, here’s my interpretation of the Dragon, blessed with auspicious jade eyes & claws 😄 #brbchasingdreams
