Illustration Friday: Missing.

< | >
Colored Pencil, Digital

My first prompt for Illustration Friday was subject based, which made it easy to come up with a composition. I suspected, however, that this week might be concept based--and I was right. I appreciated the challenge so much that I'll be turning this illustration into a painting.

When I read the prompt ("missing"), my first thought was of my husband. From there, the idea evolved to a glass-bodied robot with music box gears, missing the part that allows the music to play. Read into that however you'd like.
