Runaway Princess #6 Solemn Exodus
This piece represents a significant culmination of the artistic knowledge I’ve acquired over the past two years, skillfully integrating principles of frame composition, perspective, and color contrast. Guided by my art instructor’s suggestions, I incorporated floating petals and swirling sand into the composition to enhance the ethereal, dreamlike quality of the scene. The use of vividly saturated contrasting hues hints that the portal ahead leads to an entirely different universe, evoking intrigue and anticipation. I observed that depictions of motion in characters are uncommon, yet I find dynamic scenes particularly captivating and intend to further explore this aspect in my future work. The interaction between the blue bird and the princess serves as the focal point of the piece, naturally directing the viewer’s gaze. Additionally, my instructor emphasized the importance of maintaining a unifying element across different scenes. I chose the color blue as a thematic thread, deliberately incorporating a blue element in each of the preceding compositions.
