I really enjoyed this piece because I didn't see the picture, and then zap and understood the image. Very good feeling when you suddenly realize something like that.

no i really don't think so , you see and this is ot a critique on you work , it wasn't just that he planed to stand in front of the tank , he was coming home and decided to uphold the most pure essence of humanity , rebellion towards ones own values . he had no intension of being there he was caught in the moment and in that moment he chose to respect to the death his values hes beliefs . the groceries in his habds represented the random defense of what is valued by all SELF RESPECT AT ANY TIME not just any bystander but truthfully he who sees wrong at any time and by pure selfless interest defends his blind beliefs .
Its painted wonderfully and as anything is an expression of your pure self . but does it represent your feelings about 1 almost 10 ooo protesters being killed ? it was a spur of the moment and as such ....
I sincerely respect your stuff and because of this i post,

Tianamen square aye? Looks good, I am getting some sort of realistic/surreal vibe from it...I think you should go tape this up next to some second graders work at Norris lmfao. All I could picture with that is some parent walking by and wondering who the hell did that.

IvoryDrive In reply to Chasse [2007-03-23 01:53:28 +0000 UTC]

yeah, he had something on him, but for people who were really intimate with the pictures of the video, seeing bags in his hands would be confusing.

dude, thats just flat out awesome, a) cause it takes some really talent to actually make finger painting even semi detailed (the stars) and secondly because the video of the guy stopping the entire column of tanks is one of the most powerful and inspiring things i have ever seen. props man, good job

you'd be surprised at how easy it actually is to fingerpaint because you have a greater connection between you and your brush whether you want to or not

Nonono CLARTY! it's a word we used at my primary school...it means messy but in a fun and arty way. Like finger painting or wet clay or papier mache...they're all "clarty" things.
