Been a While


Hey everyone, sorry for the gap in between postings. I am currently trying to finish a coloring piece for my portfolio. I really want to get it done before school starts again in April, so that is really fighting for my attention. But, thanks to a gentle reminder from my girlfriend, I thought I would post something. This is a color piece I did a while ago for an emotion study. This was done with acrylics and sharpie on illustration board. I chose to focus on rage and how I could convey that visually and sort of lyrically. The broken shards are supposed to be ripping or tearing out of the hunched over figure. Much the same way, if one lets it, rage can overpower and consume a person, and usually, that does not get alleviated in the most productive way.  I really wanted high contrast colors to emphasis the emotional state I was trying to convey and naturally, reds and blues came to mind. So here ya go. Please to enjoy.
