“Today, in our field, there is so much talent and recognition that we are reaching a saturation point. An artist should no longer strive only for breathtaking craftsmanship; he should, instead, try to help us live better, either by dressing the wounds that are constantly being opened by society, or by offering solutions to get us out of the mess we’re in…But it’s going to be difficult and we have a lot of work to do.” - Jean 'Moebius' Giraud

Cripes. Gorgeously composed and rendered, but...cripes. Did you have a particularly nasty experience recently with a fellow representative of my gender? There are already too many freakishly violent displays of victimization of women in the comics/illustration biz, what gives? This particular pic really gives me the collywobbles.
It is beautifully striking -- but DANG. Let me know if you need any chicken soup and a hug.
dang! now that'd hurt! there's got to be one hell of an interesting story behind this one, mr. canete.....i love it! it's much darker than stuff im used to from your blog. beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!
guess you're flipping through some greg araki photo books lately.
awesome pic man!
This is amazing imagery! The stuff that comes out of your head is insane. I love it. Thanks for the post.
Fantastic juxtaposition of sharp jagged vs. soft delicate nature of balloonz. The female figure is amazing. I like how the one barbed wire on her calf looks like a mini clawed hand.
Hmm, maybe the size of your jpg's is relative to how you feel about the success of your image? Regardless, amazing and powerful image eric, nice one.

beautiful drawing!
The expressiveness you convey in the feet of the female figure, the way the grasp at the barbed wire that anchors her to the earth, is amazing.
You certainly are able to get a lot out of 90 minutes.
great drawing, love everything about it
ouch... great sketches!!
Incredible!
I guess what they say about filmmakers is true to most (or all) forms of art - Once they're out of their usual 'comfort zone' they tend to shine.
Of course I'm seriously paraphrasing.
This is the 'darkest' image I think I've seen on this blog and it's beautiful, Eric.
Great work.
And hey - large resolution on this pic.
of all the things to post with no explanation.....this?
Hot piece ,man.
did you eat some cheese right before going to bed?
Killer drawing!
Stunning!
Ang Galing!
