Artist's Comments

This is the tidbit of teenage angst attempting to make a statement i'm allowing myself this year. It didn't turn out as i expected at all (thought that's not necessarily a bad thing), and I used crappy crayola tempera because I didn't have any acrylic, and i'm not allowed to use oils in the garage where the pilot light is. lol.
But still...it fills another spot in my AP Art portfolio this year. Ugh...2-D blows. I collected these clippings all through the months of January and February.

I came back and edited the composition some, tried to make it work more after some highly helpful critiques from my art teacher and (for the first time! :D) some people here on DA. (hintCrimsonTigresshint) YAY!

newspaper is always fun to play with. but you've
taken it to another level with your statement.
nice!

Jesus loves you. Everyone else thinks you're an asshole.

Can I just offer a friendly critique? I think it would probably help if the newspaper clippings had been *more* diagonal, dynamically arranged in a way to create a shifting background. I know you've got 2 or 3 little bits done like that, but most of them have been arranged a little orderly.

I like how you've done the drowning face with water swirling around it.
