This piece of work is probably one of my favorite piece by Jacob Bannon. I love his use of many layers. I enjoy the dull color schemes behind the main focus of the image, which is the girl in the middle of the picture. Much of his art is comprised of many many layers of silk screens. This particular image is the cover of Converge's CD titled "Jane Doe." The best part of his artwork is that he manages to use many layers without the images looking cluttered, unless it is intentional. The style this image was created in makes it seem almost like an ancient picture. It almost looks like there is a sun behind her head. You notice design elements from perhaps ancient Egyptian era and styles. I encourage you to look at more of his designs because they are truly remarkable.
