Paint Run
Bring color to this dreary world!
After checking out the splatter-fest videos on the Adidas contest page (which looked pretty awesome), I wanted to go for something that incorporated the elements found in those videos. I wanted something fun, dynamic, evoking lots of energy and of course something with lots of paints and colors. Adidas is a brand known for its athletic gear so, after much thought, I settled on the idea of an athletic girl in Adidas garb running down a dreary corridor bringing color, fun, and excitement with her in the celebratory spirit found in the Adidas finger painting clips.
This particular image went through tons of revisions and it was grueling work to get it to look right because the angle is so skewed. It's a little rough around the edges, but I think the look lends itself well to the wild nature I was going for. I'm pretty satisfied with the result. Hope you kids like. :) (Smile)
