Part of a series of final projects at Ringling College of Art + Design.

For her final project in Classical Mythology in Literature, Art and Music, 2nd year Game Art and Design major Elisabeth-Rose Smith decided to create an alternative, multicultural Sphinx based on elements from India, Egypt, and Greece. She combined the black-footed cat with the Eurasian sparrowhawk to capture the mythological creature’s wily nature. She complemented her Sphinx with an environment design of a cave populated by Greek pottery and Egyptian jars as a potential source for her riddles. These students never disappoint when it comes to imaginative recreations!
