E.L.F. #6, "Prerequisite to Salivation"

15x20 in., 2001

Acrylic

This is Gorum. He has just spotted his dining for the evening. It will be a satisfying kill (Gorum is a hunter by trade). He will gut it like a fish, cook all the insides, and perhaps, later, use the bones as tooth picks. . . . . . . .what a delicious meal it will make! As he fantasizes about the food, his tongue extends. Shortly afterward, saliva will begin to drip.

This meal will be justice at it's finest. Gorum has no idea that his "soon to be dead" victim is also the man that just abandoned his sister, Gwyah, for a younger woman!!!!**
