It's been awhile since my last post- Fall is usually a little more challenging at the University and this is the one painting I finished lately. There is a larger one on the go too. As usual this style draws on notes I took usually at work, there seem to be no shortage of long meetings in which one can doodle a lot. Can you tell how I may have been feeling at the time of these doodles? The whole painting was based pretty much on one single doodle with a few additional items. The black-hole shape in the middle background was put in there as an experiment- I wanted the doodle to feel like it was on a piece of paper sitting on top of a dark table or something. On the right edge there is some light outlines of shapes. The other inspiration for this was exploring the idea of illness which affects many people- the character in the middle has many extra limbs emanating from it's body, and the fire is making things uncomfortable. The blue sky at the top shows the positive energy and hope for health.
