171. Lost

In the black sea
A simplistic black and white illustration of a man in a black sea with nothing around him.

Description

Something a little bit different. I'm feeling a bit lost at the moment, a lot on my plate blah blah blah - I just wanted to draw something and enjoy it. When I finish a piece to put on my site it's a huge relief. Not because I feel as though I should update my site, but it's more of a release that I get once something is drawn. Hense the simplicity of this piece!

Looking back at some older pieces, I was inspired to do something simple, and nothing's more simple than black and white. I also love just doing line art. Colour is important, but something can be just as powerful in black and white, if not more (Sin City!).

This piece was done purely in Photoshop, a nice round brush and some simple drawing. The view point, I must admit, was a little bit borrowed from the fantastic Akira (see inspiration).

Great stuff, looks like a panel out of a comic book. Very descriptive body language.
