Description Startin off the new year right with a new piece.

When we fight, our deepest, most basic instincts: anger, hatred, cruelty, violence come to surface. When love is involved, passion ignites all of them. And we must try to hold ourselves back.

Love it, hate it, I enjoyed every second creating this. The raw emotion put into this, helped breathe new life into working with photoshop. I look at this and think of it as a stepping stone to breaking a good 2 year hiatus of barely doing any artwork. Feels damn good, and I can't wait to jump back into it.

I can relate to this picture and your description to a T. Love how we hold all our emotions back. Chained from society formalism. Even though it burns so much inside, screaming to be let out. Awesome man!

I think this is interesting because most of your stuff has a lot of symmetry, but this is a little different from that.

Thanks, yeah I went a little more chaotic with this. More experimenting than concept. Was a scattered moment at the time too though, so that may be a reason as well.

Thanks Beth. I was a little concerned about it (Orange & Darks don't convert well in JPG)

well, I'm not sure what they looked like in the original format, but the contrast here is really striking indeed.

I wish I could give more constructive feedback for you, I'm sorry
