New Print : ‘Show Me The Sun’

Depicting two people reaching for the sun was the idea of aerial photographer and good friend Ibrahim @ascensionfilms. He wanted an image for a large-scale mural on the side of his house which would spread a little warmth amongst the urban #london sprawl.

I made this picture taking his idea and instead made the figures cradle the sun and present it to one-another. I wanted the colours to be super-bright and bold, playing with both separated silhouette shapes and bold transparent pigments to create some overlap colours. I think it came out pretty strong and zingy.
