The original dancing with death piece I made was a graphite on Bristol piece ( second last slide ) which featured a Porsche 992 GTR3S dangerously driving in high speeds within a damped urban environment. It sported a concept "mantis" bodykit that altered the overall look.
I thought since you guys loved that piece, this time around I made a piece for a senior project's class at my college which is based off the original. I went with an acrylic on canvas medium and also made the subject a Porsche that isn't specific of a 911 generation, but rather something existing outside of our dimension.
I can't describe the feeling I got when I finished this piece. All I can say is it felt like Z had visited me when I finished this. This was a project I been working on for over a month passively and it was difficult because in the beginning I had put down some dark blue and greens as an undertone, however didn't know where to go from there. I guess you can say I was dealing with artist block, and it felt foolish to remake a project l've already done, however l'd painfully continue upon remembering the significance on what the original project meant.
On top of that I had completely forgotten the back of the canvas was primed, and simply just continued on with the untouched side. It was extremely hard to spread the paint around at first since the natural fabric in the canvas was constantly absorbing it, but nonetheless where there's a will, there's always a way.
