Strong Against the Weak

This is the semi-finished piece of the previous sketch.  I decided to take some details off. I made the person more into a fish by taking out the hands. I also was going to put a sushi wrap over the middle fish but I edited that out because I thought there was alreading enough going on with the multicolored streaks in the background and it  would just be overstating that the girl was eating a fish.  Except for some slight re-touching this piece is pretty much done.  I can't wait to frame it! Talking about frames I am going to start working on a frame for a baby's room.  My little nephew is definately inspiring to make pieces that are abnoxiously cute. More to come!!!

Your Insomniac,

CONSUMPTION

Now that it's the middle of the summer my multitasking skills are being perfected.  At first juggling two jobs and creating work seemed impossible, but I have found a way!  The answer is dunt dunt dunnnnn.....No Sleep!  I have come to follow the saying of "I'll sleep when I'm dead."  Despite working like a mule, I am determined to have fun and create artwork.  While vacationing for the weekend at the Cape I sketched this piece.  It is my entry for Lincoln Arts project call for entry.  The gallery is  hosting an exhibit called "Taste" and were accepting entries for anything that had to do with consumption.  Sailing in the Cape definately influenced this nautical piece and the word Consume made me think of how it is such a dog eat dog world.  How we don't just consume food but each other for what we want.  How we need to hustle and strive for the things that mean something to us in this world.
