Description This is the second painting that I finished yesterday for my Intro to Painting class. The assignment was to paint post its, in any number, size, color (although the majority of them had to be yellow). I chose to paint them in this form because a plain post it just seemed so boring, because no one ever leaves them plain! They get written and drawn on, by different people with different pens, and with different messages.

I asked all of the girls in my class plus my seven roommates to write down their phone number (real or fake) and a name, with a message. They were allowed to be totally creative, and I tried not to influence what they wrote. (Although these girls helped me out, I did write one post it with my name and number on it, and the pink one in the middle). This was the outcome, and truthfully, I am very happy with it. I'll be getting a critique on it later today in painting class, so wish me good luck!

Estimated time: 18 hours
Medium: Oil on canvas

EDIT (finally): after a couple months, I finally replaced the old shitty photo with a new, better looking one. Enjoy.

Oh man, that's awesome. At first I saw the smaller version and thought "Man, I hope they don't mind her taking pictures of their phone numbers." Then I saw the larger one and realized it was a painting. Damned impressive!!
