ABOUT

I made the illustration to resemble a tree-like figure as we often see images of trees being linked to education (books/posters) i.e thinking, mental activity.

The yellow branches represent the nerves/synapses that are constantly firing in our minds as we are thinking about everything all at the same time.

The arrows represent the thoughts/actions that are constantly bombarding our minds. I like the arrows to the Tarot where the Swords suit represent the Air sign, which is both intellectual and action. The arrows are also a hidden signature of mine as my surname means, "Arrow".

The two faces flanked beside the main one represent the constant voices and our personalities that fight for our attention, causing an internal conflict.

The serene face of the main character is what we put for the world to see; that everything is fine and good.

I gave the illustration an overall textured and dark look, leaving the face of the main character a little clearer.

This is made in the reflection of my own personality.
