Anti Liberty My Version

This is my recreation of Anti Liberty which is an original art by @damoclesart .When I saw his drawing I was inspired to recreate it. I love how he joined two or several ideas in one. Very intriguing concept that I love.

For my version I want to use a drawing style that looks like a graffiti on the wall. Raw and rough with bursts of strong colors.

This is the idea of my sketch I used most of the details on the original drawing and edited some to make it look a bit different.

I changed the crown of liberty into this bony structure that is integrated and calcified with the head. The book I replaced with a key which is a symbolism for freedom. The torch I turned into a burning bunch of sage to purify the atmosphere.

I love this semi finished look when I colored the drawing. Just a splash or drips of intense red color almost blood like

The color of the flame is the color of decay or gangrene

The used the same gangrene idea on the face and head of liberty. Makes you question what happened to freedom is it deteriorating or already dead in this present time? Are we still free to make choices or free to live as we please. Hope you like my ideas and my version.

Thank you to @damoclesart for sharing his art hope he doesn't mind if I made my own version.
