Wimberly's hip-hop Shakespeare is a brilliant mash-up of 1980s slum, Samurai codes, media domination, clever art angles, and the iambic talk of forgotten Bard subplots.

A stab at #Sauron, in his “fair” form. I took “fair“ to mean “easy on the eye” rather than blonde, & also #Tolkien's early #PrinceOfCats / #Tevildo version, who wore a collar of gold that allowed him to control others (an early version of the ring?) & though I thought about a collar here like Klimt”s jewelled collar (in his Adele Bloch-Bauer portrait & Judith with the head of Holofernes) I eventually opted for this more “Egyptian” bib look.
