Abstract Faces, Character Art

May 3rd, 2007 · 10 Comments

These 2 faces were created in 2007 with an abstract notion of actually drawing a face. The faces were drawn with paint pens, marker, watercolor, and some acrylic paint. The main feeling I wanted to convey was one of energy and transparency. The vibrant colors and broken patterns and shapes help to destabilize the faces, while accented eyes, noses, and mouths still keep the basic structure in tact.
