Bathos

My first project within the Illustration course. The first thing we have to do is create a reference board on the Bathos topic. Then create a mind map and analyze the topic. After the work is done, draw an illustration. I sketched a few ideas before settling on a sultan with an onion on his head. The Sultan seems to be trying to be serious and terrifying, but because of the onion on his head, he cannot stop crying and look rather ridiculous.
