Description THis is a self portrait of myself while taking a bus from Texas to California. It was a whole new life I was facing and many phobias to be overcome. Represents the confusion and fear I felt. And the curiosity.
Done in Prismacolor markers

Wow, thats really cool and there is definitely a strong emotive quality. I also dig the juxtaposition of realistic portraiture with the psychedelic chaos

Gorgeous... Always strange, how stress and disorientation can bring out the best in a true and courageous Artist. Nicely done, RubyO!

Perhaps the word "hope" should have been thrown into the mix. It was the first time in my life I was doing something for myself outside of my norm.

Thank you so much. Actually I had spent quite a lot of time on this one. Quite a trying time in my life. To think... at the time I was a student never eating or sleeping... just studying and working nights. And now I'm out of school and out of the motel and living in a nice home. Makes you realize the power of optimism.
