Primate

The artist of Primate, Sarah Oliver, uses watercolor techniques and ink to represent an image expressing the idea that we all are nothing by beast. The human, represented by a generic, calm and peaceful face is in conflict with the angry gorilla. This gorilla, hinted in ink, is trying to get out of us all. Oliver creates a background similar to that of earthy camouflage, representing the animal actions of of humans today.

  1. Sarah, your watercolor background is awesome and the face is flawless, but my favorite part is the angry gorillas!
