Visual Journal Assignment #9

Due: Monday, October 28th

In tales of Greek mythology, fictional creatures are often featured. These creatures often combine human like features with that of animals.

Common creatures of Greek mythology include (but aren’t limited to):

The Centaur (half human, half horse)

The Minotaur (half human, half bull)

The Satyr (half human, half goat)

For this visual journal assignment, you will be creating an original creature that could be featured in stories of Greek mythology. Your creature should be half human and half another creature.

Please don’t copy any per-existing mythological creatures.

For your paragraph, you are going to tell me what the name of your mythological creature and how you came up with your concept. You will also describe to me what kind of creature they are. Are they good or evil? Do they have any special powers?
