Mayan Ritual
acryllic on wood
This was a test to try out an ink drawing I did in a minimalistic colour scheme. I wanted it originally to be much darker, instead of the lighter body tone, so I think I'll be doing a second painting of this one. The figure is one in a larger composition involving five people. I think I'll be introducing more dark tones to this piece (more of the dark blue-purple).
Louis XIV
acryllic on board
this portrait was about portraying the kings idea of possessing a divine bloodline. Also known as the "sun king".... a bit literal but I couldn't think of another way at the time to get across the concept.
