Sunday evening. Since Friday I did a lot of versions and realized that no matter how many ways to convey the "emptyness" I found - none of them really spoke what I wanted. And at the end this little drawing did it... this is a sketch about people leaving us.
Comments and questions are welcome.
thanks,
Nina
The critter looks confused... an empty feeling, indeed.

Hey, that's pretty cool in its simplicity. The face especially is very logo/icon-esque. You oughta consider taking this a bit further, thickening select lines slightly and vectorizing it - it'd make a good design for something. Maybe a shirt?
ReplyDeleteThanks for suggestion Jeope!
ReplyDeleteI am thnking about developing this character further - althoough he is quite sad and I am not sure people woould like to wear sad t-chirts :)

i like this poor confused creature, it's touching, and your line is very good
ReplyDeleteGrew up a military brat. My friends were always leaving. This picture captured perfectly the sensation of loss.

ReplyDeleteit doesn't get emptier than this. this is exactly the feeling, I don't know how you did this..
I would wear a shirt like this :-)
