Who knows what evil lies in the hearts of men?
The Shadow knows.
While I was in my tweens my mother had bought my father a large collectors pack of old radio dramas for Christmas. Amongst the various serials was probably one of my favorite story lines to date, "The Shadow."
Wealthy man-about-town Lamont Cranston (no. not the guy from Breaking Bad...did you know there was a band named 'lamont cranston?" Crazy.) was really, in fact, a supernatural crime fighter. Ok. So an insanely wealthy, dashing, SANE, guy who has mental abilities that allow himself to move objects and render himself invisible...essentially a rich jedi who can date without whining like a little mama's boy?? Yes please, I want to be him.
This was initially started as a submission to enter a pulp fiction based art exhibit, but deadlines with actual jobs kept me from meeting that deadline... I started it close to six months ago and finally made the time to complete it. I really, really like this one. Please Enjoy.

Niiiiiice! I appreciate all the work and skill that goes into the portraits that end up faded, dimmed, and even partially obscured in the final piece.
ReplyDeleteThanks Evan!
DeleteAh the value of a digital medium. It's so much easier to paint a fully rendered face, then edit it to the main image's needs. I've had to do many faded images traditionally and this is much more convenient.
