Title: From my strange gaze, I look at universal madness.

Author: Angélica García.

Technique: Graphite pencil, watercolor, white acrylic, and colored pencil on cardboard.

Note: The sequence of photographs and images in this illustration were taken with a Canon PowerShot A480 digital camera. Details that were necessary to achieve what I wanted to present were created using Adobe Photoshop, and the slides were converted to JPG format using PowerPoint.

From my strange perspective, I see universal madness.

Friends of hive, it all started with a simple graphite pencil sketch. At first, it seemed like my own version of Mr. Potato Head from the movie Toys Tory, but it's a character of my own creation, with a strange hat and a strange look. In the process, many elements were added that complete the illustrated work, which was done as follows.

• As I said before, I started my illustrated work with a simple graphite pencil sketch, With my colored pencils (pink, sepia, yellow, and green), I colored the face. Between strong red, green, yellow, and blue, I worked on the image of the hat. His eyes, between green and blue, complement the strange gaze of the main character. In the distance, a linear arc made between blue and green, respectively, make up the first part of the illustrated work.

• I continue working. The character is now presented as a male being, because he even has a mustache. In the background of the illustration, and with the intention of complementing the distance of the image, I make some circles that represent the different planets in his galaxy. I advance the process by painting the space that accompanies them with my watercolors between blue and purple. As I advance, I give color to my character, I detail the lower part of the arch. like the planet, with its continents visible between green, brown, and sepia, floating among a bluish surface like the Earth's ocean, from where my main character looks out.

• The larger planet radiates an illuminated aura, just like the smaller planets in the universe, as part of the natural life of the galaxy.

• But my character's face, with his hand on his face, shows a worrying expression, as he looks at the reality of many worlds, of those who inhabit them, of false desire, natural destruction, the Abuse, massacres, life turned into war, and an endless number of events that alarm the viewer's vision.

• I intensified the color and made some adjustments to the galaxy and its planets, so I could show you the illustration titled:

From my strange gaze, I see universal madness.

Friends, this illustration was part of my creativity, and the writing had to contain an explanation of the Because of the character's twisted gaze with his hand on his face, I assumed that the astonishment of the vision from one planet to another, where the lifestyle observed is not adequate, was the main trigger for the character's face...

Thank you very much for your kind attention.

Sincerely,

Angélica García.
