Pencil Vs Camera - 72

Choose Peace, not violence! Bringing a different 3D effect in my Pencil Vs Camera series.
This is more of an experimental work for my future projects. Parts of the paper have
been cut in the last steps to give a stronger 3D illusion. Notes: The
thin paper was moving each time I was adding charcoal/pencil strokes due
to a small space between the wall and paper. That was
making it more difficult to draw. I'll place the large paper
on the floor for more stability next time I do a similar project. View the sketch in progress here below (6 steps).

The other woman walking in the distance is an important element in the composition of this picture. The guy on the rocks is attracted by a beautiful but fake holy creature. In my view, the person with the red backpack symbolizes the real and genuine LOVE... but it is actually going away from him. Hopefully he will take the right decision before it's too late (it's just my own interpretation, I understand you might see something completely different, I even encourage this!). See the full Pencil Vs Camera album.
I took the above photo during my trip in Spain, while I was walking the "Camino de Santiago de Compostela" (I made some 700 hundreds kilometers in a few weeks and met some amazing pilgrims). I also made the drawing. You can view here below the sketch in progress, some details and the same scene from another angle.

Which one do you think is the predator? Ok, to be honest, this is somehow a metaphor of "capitalism". I have been willing to do something like this since some time… Everything is connected in this image (the smallest fish at the top is asking for help, see detail below). I took the photo near Sousse in Tunisia not too long ago, I also made the drawing. I'm not a biologist or a fish expert, I just drew these animals intuitively. If you wish, you can view the full Pencil Vs Camera album here.

85% of madness, a fantastic model, 15 liters of acrylic... Model: The one and only Caroline Madison. I took the picture with my new Canon EOS 5D Mark II. I love it! As you can see in the making here below, I've used different light sources, that's why the shadows go in different directions. I need to get more powerful spotlights for my studio... It's already my 3rd Flesh and Acrylic work with Caroline. See the other ones.
