For this assignment, we were instructed to create a stark black and white image featuring at least one animal or human in motion. In my quest for the perfect manifestation of "less is more" I stumbled upon many rocks better left unturned (or better investigated via other mediums besides pure india ink painted as black as possible with brushes), but was pleased at being encouraged to go with themes involving exciting things such as squids vs. zeppelins.

In an extra challenge to myself, I tried my best to make this image as figure-ground-y as possible & NOT violent. The true distillation of all these ideas ended up being the Rock Star, although the tentacled menace was a close runner up (I also figured it would be more fun to add washes for the ocean water or sky in the cephalopod vs airship scene).
