Back on Track (Fairey-esque)

 So happy to be pass a stage of impending depression. Its amazing how a  person can lose hold of their emotions, it suuuuuucccks! Well, I've been focusing my energies on some commissions using CS5 that have shown me a lot. I'm sooooo excited to have CS5, its amazing to create with and I'm not done using all of the new goodies. Heres an example, I like to call it Sushi, just because I was hungry while making it. Just playing with patterns and the whole Neg/ Pos kind of illustration. Love to play around with ideas. It the best trying to capture this kind of style with Illustrator, the vector art is sooo fun to play with. Its not a copy of Fairey's work whatsoever. Seriously, any artist has one time in their life done something in red/black/white in the hard edged technique, Fairey just elaborated it with content, patterns, and something else that I cant put my finger on. His work is amazing, but its gonna be hard for anyone else to do something hard edge in blk/wht/red, with patterns and not be labeled Fairey-esque.  Oh well, on another note I really enjoyed working on this image and hope to make more elaborate ones in the near future. Patterns are my fave thing to manipulate, anything can be done. Also big KUDOS to all the vector artists that can make some really amazing stuff. Any feedback would be appreciated.
