Illustration Friday: Opinion



This is my painting for this weeks 'Illustration Friday' topic Opinion. When I first saw it, I thought it said "Onion" which would have been easier, I think.

I tried to go for a sort of, everybody on the internet has an opinion, message with this. I don't think it really comes across though. I suppose what I mean is, some people have got really strong opinions when they can hide behind the internet, when in real life they would probably keep those opinions to themselves.

  2. That was the first thing I thought of for the topic (though I have yet to execute anything). I think this painting is quite splendid, I have run into this enraged guy so many times. Luckily not in person.

  4. This is great. I knew immediately what you meant to say, and it's very appropriate. Wonderful energy in this piece and I love the limited colours and tones.
