Description Right so! ^^

First things fist:
This wasn't actually inspired by Slumdog Millionaire, havn't even seen it yet (Feb 28th)
Just seems to be the first thing that comes to peoples minds when they see it

So, yeah, The idea for the squares came from the whole "chuck close" method thing (For you art nerds xD)
Aaaaaaand it drove me fuckin' nuts xP plus i sort've had a deadline for art class so it was a fairly hair-riping-outey experience I'm happy with it how it turned out though [:

This is kindof the first of a few chuck close type paintings im doing and intend to do so expect more on the treadmill

Anyhoo, appologies for being absent for fuckin aaages and I hope y'all like it! xD
2009.



Edit - This won a special merit prize in the Irish Texaco art competition recently,
Moolah for moi! xD
Nah, it's a great honour to have gotten a a high placing for this, was dead chuffed ^^

This style is quite effective and it's amusing how you didn't even start out aiming for a Slumdog piece.

Haven't seen it too. So i won't say that it looks inspired by it
I love the colors and the squares. reminds me the impressionist way of thinking (when the colors interract with each others to create a new one)
