Description
Have another painting!This is meant to be a tangible representation of a whisper. I tried to create an uncomfortable, tense atmosphere to show the disaster that can erupt when you tell secrets. The jumble of string in her hand is supposed to represent the way information can warp with each retelling of the secret.
I used a photograph (taken by me) of two friends for reference (with permission from the friends). Creds to and one other person for posing for me :^D
20"x16". Acrylics on paper. 2015.

Wow. This is a beautiful painting. I love the colors you chose, and the expressions on the people. I can easily see exactly what the story is behind this piece.

Noaaah, I love seeing how your artistic style has progressed through the years. This has such a beautiful combination of realism and the distinctive facial features you were always so great at~

It's spectacular! I just finished up with finals last semester, and while it's nice to be back at home, I miss it a ton. You're starting college in the fall, right? How are you feeling in regards to that?

That's good, finals must be brutal. You're at Georgetown, right?
I finally figured out what I'm doing! I'll be starting at University of Hartford and hopefully majoring in illustration, because they have an awesome art school but I can also do other, non-art things, like maybe minor in anthropology or sociology. I don't think I could handle a completely specialized art school, I would go crazy :'D

Yup, that's it~
Your plan definitely sounds like a good idea. The main reason I didn't go to an art school was because I also wanted to pick up a language and cultural studies. You're gonna have an awesome time for sure~
