Master Make-over

Workin on a new assignment for illustration class: a Master Make-over....taking a master painting and redoing it-using 1/3 of the original in our composition. Here is my original and then what I'm doing with it....I can't remember who is the artist-im gonna have to look it up! The original was so light and fluffy, I just couldn't stand it. I mean, it's beautiful, but somewhat barf inducing. So my idea was to take this genteel child-and turn him into a BA (bad ass for those of you who don't listen to Dane Cook). Anyhoo, the idea is to have him be a boyscout and walking home next to a playground of some sort-but he is attacked by "thugs" and instead of being the victim-he kicked their asses! Contrasts between the calm and the struggle... still trying to figure out if I want to do it in oils or pastels....hmmm:
