Under Your Skin

Illustration / Digital

Digital illustration made in Photoshop for an anatomy class assignment. The assignment was to visualize an anatomical metaphor: I chose the phrase “getting under someone’s skin.” I turned the metaphor literal, with grabby arms and creepy face underneath a hysterical man’s skin and muscle, the man then tearing off his own skin to reach this buried figure. I chose to include pictures of my process, too, showing off the amusing steps I took to arrive at the finished process.
