Bondage Illustration

This piece started as an illustration for Prostitution, a local NYC band, but they have their eyes set on another piece I did so this one will now just be something for fun. This is a mix of sumi ink wash, watercolor and a little acrylic. It was definitely fun to draw/paint and since watercolor and painting in general are all still new to me it was a fun experiment.  Trying to loosen up with this whole painting business but I like control too much!

Below you can see the piece and then the mock I did for their LP, it was a first draft. There were a few minor and embellishments on the LP so it looks slightly different than the original painting.
