Artist's Comments

Stripped

Graphite on Illustration board
Final drawing will be 30” x 40” this is 8” x 8”

As far as the single elements this is the last major one, (two eyes, roots, crow and skulls) now it’s time to put it all together. Symbolically; the first eye is accusatory, it holds blame and makes the viewer part of the narrative. This eye looks into the past and the future, yet there is an apathetical aspect to its gaze, in the final version this should make more sense.

Thanks for the great comments and questions so far!
Armin

absolutely fantastic, as always; your eyes are, to a layman like me, the most impressive part of your work. i'd love to see a step-by-step as to how you did them ;)
