Pin-up girls, monsters and danger - these are the words that Ric Frane himself defines his creativity. In his paintings, girls striking with their sexuality are next to terrible monsters, among which there are many famous both from films and books, and in real life. The artist's work combines horror and fantasy styles, sexy daring girls and real kings of horror: Frankenstein, Alfred Hitchcock and many others.
Ric Frane is a true master of erotic art. What is there among the works! One of the most interesting series is called "classic monsters", where, in addition to beautifully drawn nightmare masters, from cruel dictators to characters in horror films, sexy, apparently not afraid of anything, girls who, by all accounts, will scare whoever you want (of course, not their own stunning appearance) - there is so much insolence and challenge in them. Amazing combination beauties and monsters.
Monsters, zombies and other evil spirits who just did not draw - for example, the works of Mike Sosnowski, funny and scary at the same time. Ric Frane has managed to combine what is both frightening and sexy.
In general, among the galleries available on his website, the pin-up is in a separate section. The thing is that the artist separates erotic art and pin-up, considering them to be different types of creativity. But in fact, almost every work of his from any gallery will look perfect in the form of a calendar or a poster on the wall, be it "angels and demons", "armed and dangerous" or "Asian fantasies". By the way, if you nevertheless look carefully at all his works on the site, you notice that humor plays an important role in them. For example, one of the works has the author himself.
Ric Frane has been painting all his life. As a child, he took lessons from a local artist, and then studied at the York Academy of Arts and the Antonelli Institute of Arts and Photography. I became interested in fantasy and horror genres when I saw the work of Frank Frazetta. “This is the style I would like to create,” Rick decided then.
Rick began to create strong, daring images of women in the style of horror, fantasy and other nearby themes, using various artistic means. He mainly uses watercolors, but does not hesitate to use acrylics, inks and photos. Many of his illustrations have been used in comics, books, games, and magazines. Among other things, Ric Frane owns his own gallery. It is noteworthy that all these amazing girls are not the artist's intention. They do exist (of course, apart from those that came to us from the movies), and Rick knows them. Yeah, this guy knows how to make good acquaintances.
