This is one of my unfinished works last 2021, and I only got the motivation to complete it last April 2022. Amidst continuously having art burnouts, I managed to finish this output after I played around with bright colors like orange while also aiming to achieve mirroring such energy that gives an opposite meaning as to what emotions the subject shows.
