Description The main idea is to show the struggle inside someone's mind between two very different personalities trying to take control. It is thought as an artistic point of view of how it would be the inner struggle for a person with a multiple personalities disorder. The actual person is more like a shell and the real threats are the ones inside his/her head.

I had so much fun working on a different project and I'm really happy with the result. Even if I win or not this was a great experience to try new things and realize that I'm improving my art, that makes me happy.



I used Photoshop CC and a Wacom Intuos Pen & Touch medium

If you want to take a look at the process I invite you to my website project:

Thanks and good luck to everyone is participating!



Remember I'm open for commissions!
Commissions are open! After a loooooong time saying I was opening commissions finally I decided to make this journal to notify you guys that I'm available for commissions now!, if you've seen my work and you really wanted to get something like that well... now you can.
Before get right into business, I would like to clarify beforehand that I'm already a professional artist, so please don't expect commissions for $10 or something like that, I take my job seriously and I'm really looking to make a living from this, I hope you understand.

Cool! Is there some kind of action used to make all these shattered pieces linked to each other?

Thank you!. And nope, I used a shattering brush to make the low poly effect as you can see here in the process on my website :Β arrtman.com/projects/xxqrO

The concept is carried out very well, & many can relate. Struggle can come in different colors, but the fight is usually the same. You come out stronger each time, & better able to hold the pieces together.

Indeed!, even if the struggle is real we have to stand strong no matter what. Thank you for your kind words, I'm glad you liked it

It is, sometimes you hurt yourself more than other people do...

PatrickJac In reply to ArrtMan [2017-04-21 17:46:33 +0000 UTC]

Absolutely! And when you hurt yourself, you feel like no one could understand or help you, which leads to isolation...

I needed to add my opinion too.

So firstly, I really like the colours. Blue and orange go well with each other. And the shattered pieces underline the struggle between the different personalities. The brain in the centre, almost torn apart by both sides and the not so happy facial expression are amazingly done (the whole picture is).
I really like this picture, altough the occasion isn't the nicest one actually.

Well, long story short - I hope my English isn't too bad and you understand what I meant to say. Really nice piece of art! Β

Thank you! really appreciate your words, however I didn't get the point when you said "the occasion isn't the nicest one"

Nocterius In reply to ArrtMan [2017-04-08 21:01:07 +0000 UTC]

So firstly, thanks for the Llama Badge.

Secondly: I meant the reason or the meaning behind this picture - a person, who is torn apart by itself, dealing with issues or even worse. Yes, the "real occasion" was the contest, but its topic still "isn't the nicest one". Is it clearer now? If not, I'm really sorry. xD
