He did paintings of classic characters like Frankenstein, King Kong, Conan, and Gollem from &#8216;Lord of the Rings&#8221;.

A lot of painters just paint paintings where the woman looks like a skinny, scantily clad model in armor (It makes me think that if these women were real, they would just lay around all the time because they were so underfed.), but Frazetta&#8217;s women look like they are powerful warrior women. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"342\" height=\"456\" src=\"http:\/\/www.smoth.net\/Krystal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/60B2C8F4-0D25-4DC3-A0E8-4051E1BA8F2E.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1813\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.smoth.net\/Krystal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/60B2C8F4-0D25-4DC3-A0E8-4051E1BA8F2E.jpeg 342w, http:\/\/www.smoth.net\/Krystal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/60B2C8F4-0D25-4DC3-A0E8-4051E1BA8F2E-225x300.jpeg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 342px) 100vw, 342px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Classic Ukiyoe woodblock prints from Japan were created by artists, distributed by expert craftsmen, and mostly made for the Edo era peasant.
