Defeat

This is an acrylic painting that I did 3-4 years ago. I wanted to do something like this a little while ago, like an updated version if that's what you want to call it, but then I realized that chess is way too common of a theme in art. I wanted this picture to represent defeat, I wanted the black figure to radiate power. I wanted it to be intimidating without having an actual face. I obviously didn't reach all that because I didn't and probably don't have the skill level. Some people don't understand what is behind the chess board and just to clarify it's someone's feet that they put on the chess table, bad manners right there.
