They say a clown’s tear is the saddest thing. This piece is about the bittersweet love between a man and a monster who dresses up as a clown. The love is genuine, yet so ridiculous - it’s anguished, yet beautiful. The work is trying to convey a sense of mystery, sadness, and great conflict.

Awesome, Fiona :D

I especially like the costuming and all those balls of colour around the edges.
:iconfionameng:
thanks a lot. I'm so glad you like the color balls.
i was worried those might be too overwhelming.

What instantly came to mind was Victor Hugo's The Hunchback Of Notre Dame... rather the ending, where supposedly the skeletons of Esmeralda and Quasimodo were said to be found at the bottom of a pit.


A tremendously heart-felt piece, most prominent in the gestures and facial expressions. All those bright colours seem to be mocking upon the scene, thus accentuating a sense of forlorn.

Beautiful :heart:
