Face of Karma piece 2

I wanted to do the same affect i did on the last piece Face of Karma 1
But not to the extreme. The main action takes place on the 1st painting. This piece shows timidness or silence of the surrounding area. Nothing is effected by the death of the victim showing that life goes on even in something as chaotic as taking a life

I wanted the viewer to see in the eyes of the victim, showing a mixture of reality and spiritual realm. 

Dimensional Crash 2

Continuing with the Dimensional Crash project, This is the outcome of putting together the figures and base with the canvas. The Praying Hands become a spaceship for the two comic strip characters. The painting altogether is showing the character's rocket crashing into another dimension. This depiction  takes the overall point of interest away from the lip of the woman and more on the actual crash and reaction of the characters.

This is a piece I'm doing for Mr. Dunson's Advanced Painting and Drawing Class. In the beginning i wanted to try working with something that I'm not accustomed to, which is clay modeling. Here in the beginning process I made clay models of two of my comic strip characters. 

This is the base I painted for my clay figures. If you, the viewer, flip the picture left or right you get different depictions of what it means. With the praying hands up in the sky if you look below you can see and ocean and an evening sun. turn the picture over to where the hands are below and a horizon over a beach. the praying hand become a huge rock with plants an vegetation. Below are some photos of the figure and base process, taking pictures at different angles.

For a canvas i decided to use an old painting i have not completed in two years. The painting at first was of a woman's lower portion of her face. with and emphasis on her lips. For the project I added shattered glass, Even though it is a depiction of a woman's face behind shattered glass you cant help but think there is a deeper meaning to this depiction.
