friday - DEPTH

I created this quiet tribute to the victims of Hurricane Katrina a few days ago but it speaks loudly of depth.

Very powerful. I found myself just staring at it as if I were there in the dark night. Beautiful work…masterful rendering of light…reminds me of a graphic Georges de La Tour!

How would you like to work for a bank? We could use a fresh talent like you. We’d feed off of your soul and strip you of all creative urges, but we have benfits and a 401K. Who knows, we may even scrub that hippie right out of you and make you a front office man?

Simply beautiful. I think this could be my favorite Illustration Friday illustration of the week.

Wow this is beautifully drawn. He is so frozen in time but yet I can imagine his nostrils flaring out and blowing down again. There is so much tension in the illo!

Great dramatic use of light.
It’s a “memory” work? or you use some info document about light (like poser or some kind of photo reference?)
Scary amazing-work.

I’m a laymen and can’t offer technical criticism. It’s powerful, K. Really appreciate this one.
