Wrath Manifest

Wrath's thousand beady eyes glisten in the light of its own radiance. Smokey wisps of partial non-existence ribbon and dance, fading into velvet as their traces dissipate in the wind. A breath is taken; energy swirls violently within; the breath is exhaled.

She's walking back from class—nothing too distinctive about this stroll. Headphones covering her ears. Boots laced up around her feet. Padded winter coat. Flowing light blue scarf. Expressionless. A violent calm. Electric symphonies claw and scratch and moan with pleasing thunder—an audio-soma that both fuels her rage and soothes it. Strokes it. Encourages it. "It'll be alright," it lulls

Yes, Master

I cannot be what I so desire what is the point it's like a never-ending something or other and I can't seem to get out and why am I thinking this stop it stop it stop it stop it there it's gone now I think and now I'm headed towards ah yes here's the bliss here's the sorrow here's the madness yes it's all just a big puddle of

Dictating, he tells me I cannot become
I cannot dream
I cannot satisfy requirements

Who are you to tell me what I can and cannot achieve?
Sheepishly I cower while all thoughts of rebellion are casually swept aside.

Yes, Master.
I am your guardian and slave
Your victim and supporter
Your friend and t

****NOTICE***

This piece was stolen from the Humanities building of UW-Madison (in Madison, WI) in the 6th floor hallway by one of the foundations classes around May 4th. If anyone has seen it, please send me a note, as I am upset by its loss.

Thanks,

Assignment for my Drawing II class. We had a unit where we were drawing from music. After creating a "literal" interpretation of Mr. Bungle's "Air-Conditioned Nightmare" (I drew a pictorial representation of every instrument in the song, in a drawing that spanned the length of my entire art classroom), I decided my next musical drawing would be a more figurative and representational drawing. Plus I was getting sick of abstract stuff.

So this drawing is inspired from Daft Punk's "Robot Rock (Daft Punk Maximum Overdrive Mix)" I chose this song to draw this by because I keep hearing it whenever I am rushing to class, and so it had a memory of this stressor. Overall this semester has been pretty...rough. Well, being in the SoE has been rough. So this picture is a response to that.

Anyway, such is life. Soon I will get my certificate and move on to other things.

It's about 18" X 24" (I think?)

Done in pen and ink.

(My apologies: I had a hell of a time scanning and piecing this together. So there are some weird anomalies in the pic. Oh well.)

I love your pen deviations! The giant eye is terrific - love how the lashes almost look alive in and of themselves.

Thanks! I'm glad you like it so much.

Poor bird! Amazing detail, and have I ever told you I like the way you shade and add color to these types of pieces? The detail in the eye amazes me and it's my favorite part since I have a slight obsession with eyes. So chaotic, the legs I also love.
