Biomorphic and abstract


This is the profile picture for the Philadelphia self described "psychadellic/thrash" band, Da Comrade. This is a good example of abstraction. The form is there; the eyes, some sort of vanishing plain; but it has little resemblance to reality.



This is a work of art created for the band Raise the Red Lantern from Chicago.  I feel this is a biomorphic piece.  The shape of the face is obvious, but the hair and the waves coming from the faces mouth are not obviously defined. They are, however, organic in nature. Even the text at the bottom, "Raise," continues the organic feel.  The color also lends to it's natural aura.
