Competition: Abstract Arts: Clans of the Brotherhood

Finished
Abstract Arts: Clans of the Brotherhood

Abstract art can be utilized and performed by literally anyone. You don’t need any particular form of experience or knowledge to express yourself through abstract art.

Because you are not necessarily attempting to capture any particular likeness in abstract art, true freedom can be enjoyed. Don't be afraid to step out and try something new while you draw, paint, sketch, etc.

Objective: You will be prompted to create a piece of abstract art based on a Clan of the Brotherhood. Which Clan is your choice. What colors resonate with your characters' opinion to the clan? Is it something they cherish or abhor? Express what the Clan looks like to you personally. You can do this through watercolors, acrylics, sketching, sketchbook, markers, whatever medium you wish.

Grading: All entries will be graded with this criteria rubric

"Scholae Palatinae"

So, to explain this a bit, I drew a circle of blue to look like an eclipse of a blue sun, since blue is Scholae's colors. Empires are associated with the sun, and Scholae Palatinae is an empire. The eclipse symbolizes it's more of a dark side orientated clan regarding history and all. In the middle is a flame of blue amidst what could be interpreted as a torch kinda thing...or as the tail and wings of an eagle (referencing to the Prussian empire's eagle and such). The dots in the blackness represents the planets and stars of the galaxy, and the blue haze in the blackness represents dominion, for Scholae Palatinae conquers. The fire also comes from the old concept of Scholae's logo that was once a dragon. this kind of blue is seen as a royal color, matching the empire theme.
