This boy made me really sad when i saw him. this was on our trip we took. He reminds me of my brother a long time ago but thank goodness my brother was never on the streets! he enspires me and i think he tells a cool story. i also think that everyone will interperate this a different way. He could be homless or he could just be spending a day down town. I just wanted to share this image. i like it. He also had no idea i was taking it. i was pretty much being a creeper.Friday, November 19, 2010

Final
Someathing that i would tell an incoming AP student would be to find something early that you want to be your concentration. The best way to do that is to start thinking about it during the summer. Somthing else that would also help would be to bring a camera everywhere you go becasue the more photos you have the more ideas you come up with. Also it is very important to do more then just the four pieces that are due next year becasue you are going to need 12 breath section stuff as well.
My favorite piece that i have done this year is called old age. In this one i really got the feeling that she was looking at you. Here eyes really popped and she disappeared into the background. She really was looking at you and you could fell that she was there. It was also one of everyones favorites when i would ask.
Somethings that i learned about myself this year was that i really dont like computers and that they dont like me either. pretty much they most of the time did not work. and off course wile doing this blog spot the computer was not working with me. But to be seriouse, as an artist i grew a huge amount. i learned how to use new materials and how to look at things in new ways. i also learned how to use everyones skills to my advantage and use it as good competition to make myself better. i loved seeing everyones work throughout the year. i also grew as a person. i learned how to express myself in great ways. i also learned not to put myself so low. it took a wile to bring myself up but i realised that i needed to have confidence in myself to get things done instead of sobbing to myself.
There were so many events that i loved this year it has just been a blast. One thing that i want to do more than we did would be bookmaking becasue i love the idea of having your own book that you make. it makes it more special and you get to make it the way you want it to be. Also i loved learning from Jesse Reno. The workshop was really good. i wish that we could of done it as one big class though. and that we would of been more mixed up. it seemed that everyone that was best friends were put together and i think that we should of been more intermixed because i really did not get to know everyone super well till really late in the year. A also really loved the trip to the beach. i had so much fun! i love the beach. i also really liked the Scholastic Art Awards! it makes me make goals for myself to get scholerships and keys and stuff. it makes you feel good about yourself.
in ten years i want to live in oregon and sell my art! i want to make are everyday and get money for it. i want to live on a farm with hourses and cows and sheep and chickens and cats and dogs and goats and all that farm stuff. to get some extra money i will sell eggs and milk and stuff. that way i will have fun every day.

Tattoos on Pigs: A Work of Art or Sick Artist’s Imagination?
” We make money not art”. It is a logo of Wim Delvoye - a Belgian conceptual artist, who thinks that Art doesn’t bring any practical use. That’s why he decided to create unusual works of art, and earn money by selling them. I should say that Wim has rather unconventional imagination and utalitarial perception of art and its function. Drawing tattoos on pigs - is one of his popular projects.He has such a called “Art-Farm” in the suburbs of Beijing with a whole army of farmers, breeding pigs, and painters, drawing tattoos on pigs’ backs. Now Wim has 18 pigs on his Art Farm and 3 artists. Every pig has its own name and the works of art on their backs have the same titles.
The tattoos, which you can see on pigs’ skin reflect the heroes from Disney movies, symbols from Chinese legends and Louis Vuitton designs. Of course, he also draws his own pictures on pigs’ backs and is famous for doing it very quickly.
When a pig becomes mature, it means that time for it to be tattooed has come. To tattoo a pig it’s necessary to sedate it, shave and apply Vaseline to its skin. After the death of such an object of art, pig’s skin turnes into a real masterpiece, which can decorate your house. The dead pigs are skinned and the pictures from their backs in future will be represented on the canvas.
Those, who desire to possess such a work of art, don’t need to buy an alive pig, they can just obtain pig’s skin, which is sold at auction and evaluated rather high. The price for such original sample of modern art is nearly 150.000$. This may strike and even shock you, but there are people who buy these painted skins and feel very proud of them, hanging them on the walls in their bedrooms.The results of Wim’s work are usually exhibited in Art Galleries. An extraordinary artist prefers to show the tattoos, using his alive art objects. The collectors choose the work of art they like most of all and buy it.Many people think it’s a kind of violence to use pigs in this way. But Wim considers, that he saves Chinese pigs from butchers.
