A Rose By Any Other Name from Aug 2, 2018

Prismacolor pencil on black A3 paper,
297 x 420 mm, (11.7 x 16.5 in)

Detailed work on the anus. I'm trying to capture that balloon knot. I'm adding colour, if I get a feeling or vibe of a certain colour I'll add it even if it shouldn't be there. It's like mentally cranking up the saturation.  I tried to fuse the rose with the green smoke by making the rose's innermost shadows the same bright green. Skulls rotate around the rose and foot with lips mounted on the forehead.
