Woven Hands

'Shattered'  Series.

The  Useless  one.

   Colored chalk, ink pen, and colored pencil on heavy weight drawing paper.
    The image of the robot using a drill to dispatch himself after his mind is shattered is an image that I first toyed with in high school, and after much tweaking, this is the final product. The initial sketches for this were drawn so long ago, I faintly remember the details or my mindset during the process, but I have included all of my sketches and notes accompanying this project.

the  broken  one.

    Colored chalk, ink pen, and colored pencil on heavy weight drawing paper.
    This piece was inspired by an airbrush study I worked on in high school. One of my favorite images, a figure beaten and broken, his most essential pieces taken away from him. His inability to create is a greater torture than any physical harm that has befallen him. The negative space between the plates of armor was a a major consideration as I worked on this pieces.
