Old Maid Card Game
We were asked to collaborate in the making of an Old Maid card game. We chose to drawGreasy Grimes.
Greasy Grimes is a double-sided portrait based on the standard playing card. The two opposing sides of the card represent the inner and outer character of a singular person in two different forms. Any suitor will require a keen eye for which side of Greasy Grimes he will encounter. What is more desirable, inner or outer beauty?
"Beauty is but skin deep, ugly lies the bone; Beauty dies and fades away, but ugly holds its own."
