My music genre is Afrobeat. The whole of Afrobeat was founded by a man named Fela Kuti, and still continues to this day by his two sons and plenty of other bands that have been inspired by him.

When Fela performed live, he would often paint his face in an African tribal style to bring him closer to his ancestors. This inspired me to go find some African prints, and create a type of musical collage. My intent was to create something simple, but at the same time very visually stimulating. I wanted to transform these prints into something a bit trippier and modernized, to bring his music to a more current style.

My word was brittle. I made shapes that if you flicked them, they would break.

My final panel was an abstract scene in a forrest. The branches are lashing out at figures running through the forrest. I don't have much photoshop skills, so I made my piece sketchy. It adds a kinetic energy to the piece that the third panel lacks. I used a split complimentary triad using orange, blue purple blue, and blue green blue.
