the bus space

My piece is exploring the space inside a bus. i have had some difficulty with it. i wanted to explore the people in the space but i ended up exploring the "roomness" of it more. i intended originally for the "room" to be the stage on which my characters would play but sort of got fixated on the "spacious-ness" of the room and never actually added characters. we have been doing all this erspective stuff in my sketchbook class which i am frustarated by so i ended up manipulating the space to m personal preference of how it should be so there would be a space for all of my characters. the bus is normally to small to squish a lot of people and i wanted to include 8 pple or parts of people. also the idea of motion and space has been very "trippy"for me so i wanted the space to seem warped. i found this calender with esher drawings in it at the end of last year and some of them where really warped and this space reminded me of that and i wanted to create that same sense. i am satisfied with some aspects of this piece though i sort of want to add another layer or two with characters and possible put it on wood or a board and hang it over my space.
