Alone (IsolationComp entry)

Share

When I think about isolation, the first thing that comes to my mind are 

feelings like depression, anxiety or loneliness. So I wanted to create 

a piece that depicts all these emotions.


For the scene I chose a person that is locked away in an isolation cell. Not

able to communicate and because of that, slowely becoming insane. To convey 

a feeling of depression I colored the piece in a greyscale and tried to

minimize the gradient as much as possible. The light, shining through

the window bars, represents the unreachable and sets the contrast between

his dark, isolated world and the bright, happy outside. Not a relief, 

but further deepening the pain by being a constant reminder of what he is missing.

Wich is depicted by the reflection on the floor creating the word Isolation.


I am only doing this for a hobby and because of that and the fact that I have a

full time job, I rarely have time to sit down and create an artwork. But

luckily I had a few days off from work when I watched Jazzas video. So i decided

to take part. I really enjoyed the time creating this piece, that alone was worth it. :)

That’s nearly the exact same thing I did but, it’s just I don’t have a drawing tablet.

I love the way you used light and shadow in this piece. Even the writings on the wall. Well done.

Your work is extremely well executed and efficient, and the amount of hidden details is stunning!

Great work!

The theme is incredibly well implemented

Very creative! Love the emotion conveyed in this one
