Artist's Comments

PLEASE VIEW IN FULL MODE TO FULLY APPRECIATE

Media: PrismaColor Coloured pencils on Stratmore Drawing paper 14'x17'
Time Spent: 20-25 hours (over the course of one month)
Optional Question: What feelings and/or thoughts does this piece evoke in your mind?

Started off just as a basic sketch of a face, wasn't really aiming for anything in particular and it just developed into this surrealistic/psychedelic/subconscious/co lorful piece of work. I am quite pleased with it! I will be adding a deep dark blue backround but I just wanted to submit this for now. Still unsure about the title, I may change it in the near future. Suggestions on titles are welcome.

Other version of this piece is here "Carnaval De Mi Subconsciencia": [link]

I absolutely love the use of eyes and of all the very bright colors. I also like the way the hand is holding the head and how it seems to be dripping liquid. Very nice. As for thoughts on it, I'm not sure, let me stare at it for a while when my brain isn't fried form my studies and I'll let you know.

Wow, that must've taken forever. I really like the bold colors, and the way it flows and melds into different forms is really amazing. Really interesting work.
