No, it is not a fear of Gelato... Anyway, this was a bit of a stretch for me, putting out something so simple in design. I wanted to more go for the concept instead of a photo-like depiction of its effects. Consequently, it could also be used as an anti-bullying picture.

Very very nice. I love the rainbow in his soul when everything around him is black and white. I agree, it should be used as an anti-bullying poster

I actually had a lot of trouble decided what would go inside of the sillouhettes, here. Everything I did was too plain or too busy.

This piece would be perfect for a project we are developing -- an online gallery for artists who have been bullied or who explore the theme of bullying in their work. It's called the You Will Rise Project. Check it out here: [link] and let us know if you would be willing to share this piece on the site. Read the "Submit Your Work" section of the site for details. Thanks!
