Janus: Ted Bundy
Janus is the God of doorways. Traditionally Janus looks from war to peace. In moving through a door you transition to this change.
This is a Janus looking from evil to the illusion of normalcy. I used the execution (by electric chair) photo of Bundy to also show evil falls and decays just as good does.

Working on my next drawings. Ted Bundy as a Janus of Evil.
This is taken from his autopsy photo after he was executed by electric chair. I am taking his death and forcing him to look towards and past evil. So we may all transcend evil.
I saw Janus drawings and sculptures where one of the heads hand horns and the other was younger and more human...so I chose to pursue that.
