Artist's Comments
This was the bane of my existence over Christmas break. Maybe "bane" isn't exactly the right word because I actually enjoyed this.
This is one of our Studio Art IV assignments. We had to choose a board game (I chose Monopoly) and choose an artist whose style we had to imitate somehow (I chose Sandy Skoglund), then include them both in a surreal piece. You've probably seen her famous installation art piece, Revenge of the Goldfish, before. I've always loved her style, so I chose to use the "floating objects" theme, as well as the asymmetry and rather erratic nature of her True Fiction series. Hopefully you enjoy it as much as I do. I apologize for the picture - some of the cropping is weird. This also might not be finished. I still need to turn in it at school today! Time taken: A week Materials: Prismacolor colored pencil and illustration board Dimensions: 18" x 12" References: Skyscraper picture from Google and this guy with a crazy moustache!. Credit: Monopoly is (C) Parker Brothers. The image is (C) =SaxGirl1010. |

The irony, I just played monopoly last night >.<
The coloring is great, especially on the old man. That mustache is awesome XD
This makes me jelous, I want to try to draw and color something realistically now too
Great Work!
I'm kinda jealous I don't take art classes any more. I used to love the mad assignment they gave us! Great work!

Few of us now have seen the stars as folk saw them then...but, from the village of Wall, the stars were laid out like worlds or like ideas, uncountable as trees in a forest or the leaves on a tree. - Stardust (Neil Gaiman)
And you shade clothes sooo well!
