Pipe Dream

Pipe Dream from Fullbleed

On the surface the idea of a visual mash up of an eclipse and a skateboarder seems ridiculous, yet in reality it is brilliant. I think a lot of that has to do with the way the colors have been handled. The silhouette colors of the skater in the pipe have been reversed, mimicking the way the usually bright sun has been turned dark.

The thing I really like about this cartoon is the face, or rather lack of it. Usually it is the characters facial expression that gives the greatest meaning to the artwork. By removing the face entirely the focus really becomes the action. The only thing that I would have liked to see here is a shadow on the ground showing how high he is, but it certainly is not a deal breaker.
