ConditionThree goes all C.S.I. on picture analysis
Not enough blood. The edge of the blood is feathered- not pooled as if on a hard surface. And I think if there were that much bruising around the eye, we would also see subconjunctival hemorrhaging making the sclera red. The position of the knife and stab wound suggests an attack from the side or behind...or perhaps that the victim had fallen on the blade in an ensuing struggle for the weapon. Absence of footwear or a purse places the victim at home or in circumstances where running from an attacker made it necessary to abandon their shoes or that the victim's purse was taken. Tan line around the left wrist may indicate a watch or bracelet is missing.
To me, it's a little difficult to make out the connection between AB144 and the circumstances that lead to this 'dead person' because it is not clear whether the victim depicted was in public or at home...or whether the victim was able to detect the attack before it happened. Perhaps a spilled cup of Peet's coffee might be just a little too inflammatory, am I right? Of course, only we at OCDO would get that jab.
While I am a big fan of Oleg Volks' work, usually it paints a more exact and poignant message. In many of his pictures, he does a side-by-side comparisom. This may have benefited well in further filling in details of this sketch.
