The cleaning continues and now its time to decide what to do with the old high school art projects. To be honest I am surprised it lasted this long, and sadly alot of it, due to general neglect, is a little worse for wear. After throwing alot of it in the bin there are a few pieces which I still have a hard time throwing out, even with its dubious content and skill.
It is funny looking back at the old pieces and seeing some of the early attempts at 'politically motivated' art work. I used to be interested in politics and world affairs. My simple approaches seem childlike with comments such as chemicals in our meat and global warming. In my defence I was a teeanger at the time with lofty thoughts of attempting to change the world. I assumed for the best.
So this is my artist legacy as it stands, and whilst these pieces won;t make it to any art gallery walls modern technology allows me to record it for prosperity. Forever in a blog.
So I never really like my face much - get a new nose haha yeah funny
red shirt blue tie, classic
I must have liked basketball at some stage
Ok so it goes a little something like this, hormones are eaten by the cow delivered courtesy of the multnational drug companies, we get addicted ergo more money for the big boys...get it? hmmmm
Planes falling appart, perhaps I foresaw the collins class submarines debarcle, i knew i must have been ahead of my time
So I actually like this one, my very first stencil and 4 colours! supposedly an advert for a fictional guitar manufacturer - Fever guitars! get the fever!!!
ummmm...i never played dungeons and dragons, I suppose a prt of me always wanted to
A competition entry for a softdrink company, first time I had used an airbrush, and spent so much time on it, but it still looked ordinary. At least I learnt about how to overwork a project and to leave well enough alone.
So theres a bit of a snapshot of my high school art career, naieve but colourful.
