Banner #9 - Kennedy

Mar 09, 2011 13:45

I know I said I was done with these banners, but I've become strangely obsessed with them and couldn't resist taking a stab at one or two more.  Below the cut, Miriam Kennedy Corliss wants to show you something.







Banner #9:
Kennedy

Notes:
Ken's arc in Clocks is all about revolution, power dynamics, privilege, betrayal and, of course, "what evil tastes like" (kinda chalky).  I tried to layer in some textures that referenced these ideas.  I went with a sort of late 70's, cluttered punk-poster sensibility, mixing scribbles, stamps, pastels and gouache, along with Warhol's painting of Mao, an old propaganda image of Stalin and the blueprints for a nuke.

This one is still kinda rough, so I might revisit it later on and take another whack at composition.

All banners to date:
