This drawing was inspired by a girl I once knew. She was for all outward appearances a free loving and joyful flower child who worked at spreading the idea of peace, harmony, and a love of nature. Her flip-side was that her very harsh and messed up childhood left her with a deep depression she tried to keep hidden from all except a very few. As she brought tidings of love to the world she was full of pain inside and peace was never her true mental state.
The original drawing was part of my second Zombie Dolls flash series and done with colored pencils and ink. For this version I have used a tad of pastels and some blenders before digitally messing with it.
I have made this available as prints and on shirts via Society6
and also in a new section I have added on Imagekind I am calling THE MIX.
All works in THE MIX gallery are a combination of traditional and digital art techniques. Pencils, pens, paint, ink, graphite, oil pastels, etc… and then digital manipulation.
