Abstract Arts: Battleteams of the Brotherhood

Abstract art can be utilized and performed by literally anyone. You don’t need any particular form of experience or knowledge to express yourself through abstract art.

Because you are not necessarily attempting to capture any particular likeness in abstract art, true freedom can be enjoyed. Don't be afraid to step out and try something new while you draw, paint, sketch, etc.

Objective: You will be prompted to create a piece of abstract art based on a Battle Team of the Brotherhood. Whichever House is your choice. What colors resonate with your characters' opinion to the Battle Team? Is it something they cherish or abhor? Express what the Battle Team looks like to you personally. You can do this through watercolors, acrylics, sketching, sketchbook, markers, whatever medium you wish. Bonus points will be rewarded to those who choose a Battle Team that is not their own!

Grading: All entries will be graded with this criteria rubric

Abstract_Art_Tacitus_Athanasius.png
Textual submission

This is an abstract depiction for the Battle Team, Tacitus Athanasius, which is actually the battle team I founded and currently lead. Battle Team Tacitus Athanasius is an assassin based unit that takes out enemies of House Excidium, and even Clan Scholae Palatinae. The blood drips and splatters represent the shedding of blood expected from assassins. The spiral formation in the middle represents a seal that branches out in vein like strings to represent the brotherhood of the assassins sealed in blood while bound through the Force, whether they are Force sensitive or not. The lights help emphasize the black abyss, which represents silence and hollowness, as well as the darkness assassins use to their advantage. Silence and a hollow heart are key for a successful assassination.
