The original Five of Cups looks like this:

Which isn't a lot to work with, when it comes to body art. I didn't just want to throw a cloak on someone and call it a day. So I set out to design a piece that felt familiar, but was also distinctly my art. My brain is handles abstraction fairly well.

I hope you like what I created with Martin!
Instead of the cups spilled over on the ground, I attached them to his body. I thought it was an in interesting way to represent those knocked over. For the ones that are upright, I placed them on his shoulders. Nearly all of the poses we shot for this project were from the rear!
This is our second body painting together (and one of the few "back side only" body paintings I've done). Let me know what you think below. Thank you!
