Description

This is my entry for A.C.Ryan Evolution Contest!
A little story: I saw the image of a model in a publicity, (now i can´t find where the hell i put the reference, please wait me and soon hope i´ll can post it), and thus the idea arose: Adoration.
I remember the images of the Mother Mary when, being young, saw in the house of my grandparents. Today the images that we admired are others, those of young models that follow standar of beauty installed in this global society.
This one is the new religion? To believe more in the superficial thing than in the values that a time ago represented those images of adoration? Will be more important the appearance than the spirit?
This evolution of which we believe and we adored is what I wanted to represent.
This is my first work after the Chichoni class. You can see the notes of the class in Approach to the Artistic Illustration . I´ve tried to follow many of its advice.
The metal crown is a form to make a small tribute to my great teacher. There are other symbols that represent religious beliefs, as the cross in earring form, the tattoo of the sacred heart and the mantle.
The tuft of violet color in the hair is because my good friend Matilde said me that it´s the color that represents the feminine thing, to the women, who today take their standards affluent at sight, without hiding them. (a little, the idea to show the chest also comes by that side). Matilde also gave advice me of how "making up it". (THANKS!)
Like ever, made in acrylics, brush and sponge.
Finally, this work is dedicated to all my friends of Turkey,  MertAcar , Mert(aka  EvanQuel-thul ),  Jafus ,  zahara ,  OzanKarabulut ,  SerAKIN ,  leloops ,  HuseyinKARA,  BoBoBo ,  HarikA , and all the great people form this country that I forget.
Hope you like!
