Slingshot

Digital painting of a sculpture of a boy aiming a slingshot of his own eyeball. The sculpture is of a reflective, mirror-like surface that reflects the surrounding art gallery into distorted shapes. It’s painted in solid, blocky brush strokes.
  • ~1h40
  • this is the sculpture Slingshot by James Jean, which I was lucky enough to see at a solo exhibition a couple of years ago!!
  • I thought the reflective surface would be interesting to draw, which it was! but also it was really confusing to study. a real challenge in trusting the process.
  • I’m reflected in five different places taking this photo lol
