This drawing was based on a still in a music video by the musician Ab-Soul. In his music video for “Do Better” he talks about the highs and lows in his life and career and particularly his battles with depression. Its’ an incredibly powerful song and one that stuck with me. I wanted to try and capture some sense of the intense raw emotion etched on his face in every line. Icarus is a reference to the idea of fame and scrutiny often becoming too overwhelming for those in the public eye.
