Eliud Kipchoge
I remember watching Eliud Kipchoge run under 2 hours for the marathon and one of the commentators said he often smiles when he is pushing past his pain barrier. Towards the end of the run he began to show signs of pain and he began to smile. I tried to capture the inner pain that he might have been feeling by portraying it in the different sets of darkened eyes. The overall psychedelic look of the drawing represents an overwhelming afterglow feeling he could have felt when he became the first person to ever run a marathon in under 2 hours. The third eye represents the transformative life changing experience.
