A small painting I did after work(Hell).

This is where I’m at with this drawing. I’m taking influence from an oz magazines poster of Bob Dylan where they used a cyclone of circles to unify the image. It’s such a constructive piece that its taking me longer then I thought. There’s an order to the way it needs to be drawn so that it layers properly.
Alright this character is a bit of a smart ass. What choice does he have. He fucks with people’s perception every day and yet, like Freud, he solves people’s problems therapeutically. He’s angry and conflicted. He’s also an entertainer at the end of the day. He should be a star. This drawing is based on the calendar art idea of an image…I guess. “What are you doing right now?” That alcoholic concept of get drunk, get as drunk as you can and then get even drunker that carries over to ,what should be an art form of, pot smoking. This drawing is quite clearly a rough for what could be. The character as an icon. A mascot. A symbol.
