Take a Break

This is the final project for Drawing IV class. The class could choose the prompt for their projects. My project's concept is about the constant consumption of negative news stories and the importance of taking an occasional mental break from the news. Music can be powerful in providing a brief escape before focuses on reality again, so I drew a woman listening to music. The woman's private enjoyment of her music manifests a glow that shields her from the raining newspaper snippets.
