Description:

'The Painter and his Family' is a reference to a painting by André Derain, c. 1939 of the same name.

The painting is an allegorical representation of the life of an artist. It is a completely invented scene, bearing no resemblance to the solitariness of Derain’s true working conditions. This series is similar in a way to the painting.

So, I asked myself: "why not try and write a story in which Izuku is a Todoroki with a Fire Quirk?" And instead of just asking, I do it.

Part One - Diptych
"Diptych - An art term. It is used for an artwork consisting of two pieces or panels, that together create a singular art piece."

Part Two - Double Exposure
"Double Exposure - An art term. Used in photography and filmmaking, it is when film is exposed twice to capture and merge two different images into a single frame."

Part Three - Tabula Rasa
"Tabula Rasa - A noun. Used in psychology and literature, it is when there is an absence of preconceived ideas or predetermined goals: a clean slate."

Coming soon:

Part Four - Palimpsest
"Palimpsest - A noun. Used in art and literature, it is when something is reused or altered but still bears visible traces of its earlier form."

Notes:

Palimpsest is coming soon! Thanks to the lovely Yaniv1233, I will be using Palimpsest as a place to publish removed scenes/writing from the stories in this series!
