"Adrift" | Oil on Paper 12"x15" | personal art for upcoming show

My original concept was to flank the figure with heavy black sea walls but when I got started on the plate it didn't feel right so I abandoned that idea and moved the weight of the composition to the Anchors and over-inked that area to the desired effect. I think that I made the right decision if there is a right or wrong in image making.
