Income Bent 2 is a piece that exhibits the metamophosis of man's stress and worry as he gets closer to being broke as many of us starving artists have been at one time or antoher.

This was froma period of my life when I was broke and as a freelance artist, had no commisions or anything lined up for quite a while. This is how I felt during that era.

This piece was first done in Photoshop as a series of lines and texture that outlined the general image. I then brought into Painter and used the guides that I had created in Photoshop to detail the rest of the painting. I tryed to stay away from the airbrush tool as much as possoble on this one and used a large variety of brushes and mediums.
