Description
Jack Barakat as the Mad Hatterhaving fun with All Time Low, who contributed to the Tim Burton/Alice In Wonderland soundtrack with their new song “Painting Flowers” … hope you like it.
Strange maze, what is this place?
I hear voices over my shoulders.
Nothing’s making sense at all.
Wonder, why do we race?
And every day we’re running in circles.
Such a funny way to fall.
Try to open up my eyes
I’m hopin’ for the chance to make it alright.
When I wake up
The dream isn’t done
I wanna see your face and know I made it home.
If nothing is true
What more can I do?
I am still painting flowers for you.
Woah
Throw my cards, give you my heart.
Wish we could start all over.
Nothing’s making sense at all.
Try to open up my eyes,
I’m hopin’ for a chance to make it alright.
When I wake up
The dream isn’t done
I wanna see your face and know I made it home.
If nothing is true
What more can I do?
I am still painting flowers for you.
I am still painting flowers for you.
(I heard everything you said. I don’t wanna lose my head.)
- lyrics from Painting Flowers by All Time Low

you should do something with Alex going along with the whole Alice theme. I think it is so very creative and really showcases your skills. I mean, painting or drawing a copy of a picture is already so very difficult, but you actually make up the picture too... keep up the amazing work!!

Thanks, I will!
The movie (esp the ending) did disappoint me, but it's still a great theme

Have you shown them this!!? This is the kind of thing that would make them name a song or maybe an album after you!! This is awesome and hilarious ha ha

you're welcome
then if Jack as Mad Hatter, how about Alex? 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I couldn't decide between Jack and Alex for Hatter originally
They are both equally good for the Hatter
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
hahaha both of them are fit, but i prefer alex to be the rabbit

I'm sure many people would

It would work, but he has no make up on. I really like the painting though, it was well done!

did you like the movie?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I liked it,but I think I have alredy seen a better version of this movie...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
There have been several versions...I liked it alot but I would have enjoyed more character development.
I disliked the ending...I wanted Alice to stay in Wonderland
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Indeed, I wanted her to stay too and I liked Mad Hatter there,he was too sweet
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The Hatter - I didn't know what to expect from him as a character when I went...but he was sweet, and kind, and slightly mad in a good way.

I love how you were able to keep the lead singer looking like himself even though you changed his hair completely. Again I really love the whole idea of musicians as Alice in Wonderland characters.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That's what made the idea fun and a challenge
I knew everyone would likely paint Johnny Depp (and I love him, too!) but I thought I'd do something completely different.
what no one noticed is I flipped the hatter basics (left to right) and changed the direction of the light. I also added "34D" on the hat's paper tag (because during All Time Low's concerts, girls throw bras onstage and he makes fun of the small ones!) so there were lots of details to have fun with.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I did notice it was on the other side but I didn't notice the "34D" on the tag. That's hilarious. And I didn't know that about All Time Low's concerts. Haha. Oh man I kinda want to go to one now. I really like how you put an All Time Low guitar pick in his hat as well.

that's the stuff that makes it fun...yeah, Jack and Alex (mainly Jack) get crazy with the bras...they hang dozens on their mic stands after the girls throw them up on stage. that's why I gave him those phallic flowers, from the song "painting flowers" but also I knew he'd like those the ones the best
