Unnecessary ViolenceWatercolour on Watercolour Paper
16" x 15"
Last Interpretive Illustration project of the year: one week to make a portfolio piece of anything you want. I was very happy to hear this. I think I have turned a corner dealing with subject matter thanks to this project. I have been very process oriented this year and along the way lost the fluidity of drawing and painting. Recently I was overwhelmed by the exposure to violence everywhere I looked. What perfect timing to reflect upon this inspiration. My goal was to make these soldiers look as stupid as possible, while keeping believability and the integrity of my work. . . . . so I replaced their rifles with big fat Rainbow Trout! It was fun to be free again with subject and media. Someone pointed out that the shadows need some work. I agree. I was just too excited to notice. Com'mon people . . . Rainbow Trout!

This somehow reminds me of your marching band, even though they're stylistically completely different.
Maybe this is where Greg Dubeau is going in the future? hmmm?
