The Angry Thinker

I had this idea kicking around my head for several days, it was one of those drawings that if I don’t get it out of my head then it will invade everything I do until I kill it.  Fortunately I feel it was well worth the effort.

When we lived in Canberra we got a chance to go and see the Rodin exhibition and it was inspiring.  I’m struck by the power in his sculptures, especially the hands, there was a piece that was just hands and they exhibited such amazing power and heaviness.

Of course when I think of Rodin’s work I immediately imagine characters such as the Incredible Hulk so I could not get this out of my head:

Let me know what you think, colour one is sitting on my hard drive so I’ll post it either tonight or tomorrow morning.  Also posting on my DeviantART profile.

  4. Cellobella - there was actually a comic book where Hulk gets out of town to do some thinking even though he admits that he doesn’t know what to think about. So I kind of see it as ironic at the same time.
