"Cycles"
Illustration by Nicki Newell
2022
This piece was a labor of love. I started this illustration back in early 2022, I believe, but the background was eluding me and I wasn't sure where I wanted it to go. I was lacking a vision for the piece so I put it down for 3 plus months. Finally I came back to it with some new inspiration and decided to chip away at it.
This piece is called "Cycles" as it includes elements from varying stages of a life cycle all mingled together to create a balance of life. I learned a lot with this piece, stretching myself in the area of the background and light details.
I have since made this illustration into A5 art prints which can be found in my shop at https://nickinewell.art
