In this chess pencil work, i wanted to create a dissected feel to the components within chess. I have turned pieces upside down, split them apart, and fused all the elements together with color and the break down of form. A face within the pieces is also upside down symbolizing the reverse psychology neccessary to achieving the upper hand in chess. Thnaks for looking. Copyright 2005 by Imaginative Pencil and myself.
