Location: United StatesCreated for Month of Fear Challenge. Inspired by Ladytron’s “Ghosts”. The phrase “ There's a ghost in me/Who wants to say I'm sorry/Doesn't mean I'm sorry” gave me an idea to draw two conflicting emotional states merging as one entity. This one also has an experimental layer of metallic paint. I bought this fun paint for my infant daughter’s art project and I discovered it can create an interesting effect when it’s applied thinly. Sort of, ghostly simmer that appears only in reflective light.
