Made Fresh Today - July 16th, 2007


Rain

I based this piece on an image from a newspaper photo showing a person trying to hurry down the street in heavy rain. Attempting to capture the movement of the feet was tough, as well as the steep angle of the face beneath the umbrella, which in the end ended up being just an umbrella pulled down to obscure the face. The ribs of the umbrella were odd. It's a strange angle with the umbrella tipped forward over the face and the body actually hunching toward the viewer. A challenge that I didn't quite nail I'm afraid, but a good first try.
