Drawing: 'Vengeance'

Description

I had a lot of thoughts in the progress of this drawing... after i was quite happy with the result of "Alpha's Cry", and the technique, i wanted to further investigate how animals can create powerful emotion-icons to humans.

I decided on a lion's roar (blocking out the immense amount of work that comes with their mane..-.- ) The King of Animals, upset, raving, yes, an angry lion.

One time i came to work, and without even thinking i drew a tree onto their whiteboard. I'ver never before drawn trees. It always were Smiley faces, horses, lovehearts...
I quit work two days later, and when i saw the boss a while later, he told me that he's gonna keep that drawing on the notice board.
"I like it", he said. "the Tree of Life."

Many days on, i was drawing on my lion, and without hesitation, i turned to the background and drew the tree again. The tree of Life, in the storm of Life.

Spontaneously, in my mind i created a scene of the Lion King. Mufasa returns, but taking in the cruel death of his beloved home, he can nothing but roar in sorrow, in anger, and in pain. Yearn for vengeance, like the final roar of someone tortured to the border of death. They return, and when they return, they'll be stronger than ever.

What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger - and by God, it creates a more powerful hunger for revenge than they could ever imagine.

Drawn with
-Artline200 0.4
-an amazing pen that my sister found abandoned: Pilot Marqueur A Dessin. A tip so fine I wouldn't have imagined it exists...
- when i got lazy with the background, i switched to a black FaberCastell pen and a Staedtler Mars Lumograph 8B pencil.



If someone has tips on how to create a more... eye-leading piece, please let me know... all the detail makes the drawing look a bit chaotic, i think.. :S

Sehr schöne Arbeit! Hat sicher längere Zeit in Anspruch genommen.
