Chaos and Bloom - (mixed media drawing)

Good day guys, it's been a very long time since my last post, I have been up with school works. Compliments of the season, too.

Today, I'm sharing the complete shot of the second piece in my Genesis series and it's titled Chaos and Bloom.
It's a piece that explores our identity as humans, and how we react to situations, problems.

It's a charcoal on canvas piece, I used acrylics for the background and a real (3d) flower for the hair.


Like the previous, the chess background is a metaphor for life. I have visually represented how the queen is checkmated. Bringing it to life situation, the queen (the model) has a smile on her face even if she's in the face of danger and a bloom on her hair. I have captured her resilience and strength and most importantly I have captured the mood of someone who knows her identity.

Below are progress shots.
Thank you for stopping by. And happy new year in advance.

Happy New year in advance 🎉
