the boy who couldn’t stop – process ii

this is the long and arduous process of my zebra painting

originally this canvas was used for a calendar submission

the theme for the calendar was the 2012 lunar new year: year of the dragon

photoshopping what direction i want to gravitate towards

this is what i submitted to the client, called “welcome the new year” (acrylic and photoshop)

the client said that the image was too scary, so i tried to soften/alter the dragon

this submission got rejected, and i didn’t like the image large scale, so i broke down the form

i used this painting for a live body paint show at exchange la in downtown los angeles

i was actually really happy with this image, but it didn’t have a meaning… so i kept trucking on

i wanted to paint an idea of greed, and i was using the zebras as a metaphor

perhaps multiple zebras to tell the story? maybe

maybe not

maybe yes

the final image…finally. i was going to shoot myself.
