Artist's Comments

Okay, here goes... *deep breath*

Well, this is another piece I did for my summer art class. It was the first assignment, in fact; the point was to familiarize ourselves with the compositional properties of "line," blah blah blah. We had to make a collage first, then transfer it in ink. Believe it or not, all the hard work and numerous hours I put into this piece only earned me a "B" grade for the assignment...keep in mind this was a FOUNDATION class, meaning there were no prerequisites, no requirements for having prior experience; it was a basic, starting-from-scratch class. I busted my ass on this sucker...the stipling alone took at least 4 hours to complete (the finished piece is about 11x14 inches). The teacher said it was too "busy" and that I should have removed a few compositional elements--I disagree. I don't know about y'all, but when I hear the word "collage," I don't immediately think, "one or two boring pictures pasted together that hardly fill a corner of the picture frame." What I think is more along the lines of "Big EXPLOSION that keeps the eye moving and the viewer interested." In MY opinion, anyway. But no, I'm not bitter. Not at all. *cough, cough*

ANYWAY, I got the pictures I used for the collage from all over the internet, and a couple of them from Deviantart...except I can't for the life of me remember which pictures came from where, so if you happen to see a picture of yours or a picture you recognize as someone else's, please tell me and I'll give proper credit!!! What else...oh yes, for those KH2 fans out there, that IS Namine's face in the left-center-ish area.

Done with black india ink w/various nib sizes on white bristol.

Right and wrong
Are not what separate us from our enemies
Both sides blame one another
Theres no good or bad
Just two sides holding different views

I badly believe that everything that exist, everything that has done and have to come, has an aim. Everything is Inevitable. Even our own dreams are inevitable thoughts. Thinking like this, to breathe is a little bit easy and meaningful.
