Drop Acid Not Bombs! That was a common catcall of the peace loving hippies of the sixties. I was watching a show the other night with my Mother and brother about the activists of the sixties and the nationwide psychedelic experiment many of them participated in. My mother, being a flower child of the sixties, shared stories of what life was like in our little hometown in northern Michigan during that era...which served for my inspiration on this color scheme.
I wanted to keep this as simple as possible, yet give it a psychedelic twist. I chose a 4 color combination that I thought flowed very well together...
This was a very cool image to finish...it was a bit more tedious and time consuming than some others due to the fine lines involved...
I suppose I could've filled in more of the white space...but I liked the way it was coming together at this point, so I decided to finish it out using the white space to my advantage...
Kinda looks like cotton candy and creamsicles doesn't it...makes me wonder what the hippies and flower children of the sixties would see if they viewed this through the tinted windows of a tripping soul...
