Sensual Earth

Digital Painting

12” x 15”

My work explores the relationship between what environmental factors and what Earth has to offer. With influences as diverse as quality of life and the consistent rising of pollution, I hoped to have created a piece that highlights these topics in a simple but creative way.

I truly wanted to highlight the tears of the subject and the black pollution that the Earth must endure. Over the years we have consistently hurt our planet where the Earth is forced to consume trash. I wanted the presence of the gunk to be known but not overwhelming, similar to how it feels in real life. As humans, we have naturally adapted to pollution filled cities or overwhelming heaps of trash. Like in the piece, it is not overwhelming at first but eventually overwhelms the viewer.

As the viewer becomes overwhelmed in the piece, I wanted the viewer to be able to navigate their eyes in the piece with slight bits of color. So the viewer is left with a visual of the outpost of our world.
