This illustration captures the essence of duality and transformation, portraying the journey of a powerful individual through time. The split composition symbolizes the two contrasting phases of life youth and age joined together to reflect continuity and evolution. The left side exudes vibrant energy, marked by youthful features, while the right reveals the wisdom and grace accumulated over years.

The crown, intricately detailed, serves as a symbol of enduring authority and legacy, blending past and present into a single, unified identity. The bold colours of the garments represent the dynamism of this character’s role, contrasting yet harmonizing to express their multifaceted personality.

I created this piece to explore how time shapes identity, blending modern minimalism with timeless symbolism. This character, though rooted in historical and cultural significance, transcends specific timelines, inviting viewers to reflect on the universal human experience of change and perseverance. The illustration brings this figure to life as a representation of resilience, transformation, and the enduring spirit of leadership.

This striking illustration is a symbolic depiction of the Queen of England, merging the facets of her reign into a visually compelling narrative. The composition is split down the middle, representing the duality of her journey through life: the vibrant energy of youth on the left and the grace and wisdom of age on the right.

This division not only captures the passage of time but also highlights the continuity of her role and the enduring strength of her character.

The crown, intricately drawn and resting atop her head, symbolises her sovereignty and steadfast leadership over decades. The vibrant colours in her attire the cool blue of youth juxtaposed with the warm pink of later years emphasize her evolving role as both a steadfast ruler and a beloved figurehead. The jewels, subtly rendered in gold and green, add a regal touch, signifying the opulence and heritage tied to the British monarchy.

The Queen's calm yet penetrating gaze, depicted with bold green eyes, suggests a deep connection to her people and an unwavering sense of duty. The balanced symmetry in the illustration reflects the equilibrium she maintained between tradition and progress throughout her reign.

This artwork brings the Queen of England to life as a timeless icon, representing resilience, dignity, and the unity of a nation under her leadership. It is a celebration of her legacy, immortalised through a fusion of modern artistic interpretation and historical reverence.
