As my husband was browsing through the many delightful posts on Instagram, he came across a video of a Chinese sculptor who was happily playing with corn cob soldiers. This sparked my husband’s imagination and he pitched me the idea of this dashing Fabio-esque corn man gallivanting the countryside in search of maidens to rescue. This is my attempt to illustrate his character. I presented it as a triptych; the hero, a monster, and as a twist, a maiden who does not need to be rescued.
