Coulrophobia

Final art project for Illustration class. This project's theme was "Phobias" where we were given a list of phobias to choose from and we had to create a piece that either explained the phobia or possibly gives the viewer a peek into the psyche of a person who suffers from the phobia. I decided to go with Coulrophobia, the fear of clowns. My personal fear with clowns stems from the not knowing who or what is under the make up and I decided to show a clown stripping the makeup to reveal something horrifying.
