Hi guys, I finished this painting last week.

The idea behind this painting is the quietness or stillness of thought, yet how inside there can be turmoil. I expressed this idea by keeping the figure mostly black and white while the thoughts are in color, some soft, some harsh.

This painting is following the process that I am starting to prefer for all my paintings; I start with an abstract background in acrylic and markers and painting the figure in after. Using oil in the final layers for refinement and dept.
