The Return - Atomhawk: Shortlisted

I did this image for the Atomhawk Art Competition titled: The Return. I thought about a father coming back from the war to meet his child. I wanted to focus on shape language and communicating volume but also emotion. I tried this style of illustration, and I really liked it! My mom always tells me how she thinks my drawings are well made but horrible, cause of the subject matter. She was pleased to see me painting a heartwarming scene.

This image ended up being shortlisted in the competition! Top 35 :D

I did this all live during one month on twitch! I stream Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at https://www.twitch.tv/arthur_draws
