Hand to hand

Hand to Hand is inspired by the act “Hand to Hand Love” from Cirque Du Soleil Drawn to Life. In it the lead character’s parents perform an aerial dance expressing themes of connection, care, and love. What I want to express with my artwork is deep emotion and this act is a perfect example of that. I have chosen to depict a particularly emotional moment where the husband supports and caresses his wife.

An earlier draft showcasing the raw drawing before any color. The hearts were later removed so they did not distract from the solemn mood of the piece.
