Work In Progress: Keep An Eye On The Women Around You

A piece that is centered around protecting intoxicated women while out at parties or at a function. The materials that I have used so far are Prisma colored pencils as well as pastel chalk pencils on heavyweight paper, I also used my blue “artist tape” to keep my boarders clean! This has become a really time consuming piece as I have never spent this much time on a piece in my entire life! The reason for that, is because I’m trying to put in as much detail as possible to resemble some of the works found during the renaissance.

I have done some research on “Italian Mannerism” as well as the many great artists within that era such as; Pontormo (Jacopo Carucci), Parmigianino, Federico Barocci, and Francois Clouet. I took inspiration from their work and incorporated the softness in tone and form of the people they’ve illustrated, which lead me illustrating 3 beautiful women; Leondra, Kenndyl, and Kei.

This is the photo reference I used, provided by Leondra Robinson. I kept the 3 figures shown in this image and changed the background so that I would have more room to turn this scene into a house party!

Now its time for me to start illustrating the message that i am trying to send. The thing that gets most people’s attention sex and shock value, I realized that I have a gift to create anything I want and that I refuse to limit my abilities as well as my own creativity. So I decided to create this horrific image of men or… monster made of men taking advantage of women by getting them drunk/high so that it can have sex with them. This is all that I will say for now as there is no much more that I have to finish!
