GrissyG
interprets five female mythical seductresses
of Belize. They are "Xtabai", "SeaReyna",
"Sisimita", "Llorona" and
"Sucia". It is believed that the
Xtabai is a spirit who can take on many forms.
Xtabai usually appears as a beautiful woman
then seduces men to follow her into the jungles
of Belize where she leads them to their doom.
GrissyG builds sculptural paintings
of each myth on 2’x 4’ wood panels,
utilizing a wide range of mediums such as metallic
paints, gel mediums, wire, sculpey, aluminum
foil, and other materials. Most textural relief
in the paintings are executed from a technique
developed by GrissyG after taking a cake decorating class.
