Here are some images I looked at for inspiration and composition. The image of Flash was really helpful in getting an idea of fast movement in terms of the color striping. The other image I used to get the pose of the runner.

These are my color compositions of the runner. I really don't like the stark contrasts with the reddish orange color and the dark background I want. It was suggested that I play the movement stripes off of the green of the running uniform. I also added the speeding bullet at the top of the second sketch to add a greater idea of the speed. I used the prisma-color markers to make light marks so that the striping would not be so blunt and flat. I also used a slightly different tint of the background color for the speed bubble, as Rusty suggested. I think it worked out a lot better, but I have been struggling with this assignment. I think it should translate a lot better with gouache.
