Another innovation based on work in industry, after my “Doc Ock” [link] It’s drawn by referring the album cover of a Hong Kong artist, Miriam Yeung, entitled “Unlimited”. I just add some rose designs to enhance the concept of the album.

The idea is to show two sides of women nowadays: they can be very strong, independent, self-protective and responsible to their family, while sometimes they can be very gentle (especially when with their lover ). I think roses are suitable to describe the women because roses, unlike other kinds of flower, may look weak in appearance but they have torns to protect themselves.

In this final work, lots of changes are made (compare to my sketches) – not going to mention here. And, finally, I get the emotion right!

Spent me around 30 hours and thereabouts. Mixed media of acrylic, Chinese ink and color pencil on illustration board.

Hope you like it.
