Competition: Abstract Arts: Houses of the Brotherhood

Finished
Abstract Arts: Houses 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 House of the Brotherhood. Whichever House is your choice. What colors resonate with your characters' opinion to the clan? Is it something they cherish or abhor? Express what the House looks like to you personally. You can do this through watercolors, acrylics, sketching, sketchbook, markers, whatever medium you wish. Bonus points will be rewarded to those who choose a House that is not their own!

Grading: All entries will be graded with this criteria rubric

House Excidium

So this is my abstract piece for House Excidium. The smokey background and foreground is due to Excidium's mysterious and shadowy theme. The rigid "E" stands for Excidium. The black and red represent the dark aspect, while the white and blue represent the Scholae Palatinae influence since it's a House of Clan Scholae Palatinae.
