We had to illustrate "fire and ice", acrylic 10''x10''
HOW TO FEEL MISERABLE AS AN ARTIST
- Constantly compare yourself to other artists.
- Talk to your family about what you do and expect them to cheer you on.
- Base the success of your entire career on one project.
- Stick with what you know.
- Undervalue your expertise
- Let money dictate what you do.
- Bow to Societal Pressures.
- Only do work that your family would love.
- Do whatever the client/customer/gallery owner/patron/investor asks.
- Set unachievable/overwhelming goals. To be accomplished by tomorrow.

what an awesome assignment, I could totally see that in a magazine! The chic in the foreground (the icy one) is spectacular (and she looks an awful lot like a certain with high pockets I know...) Great expression and body language for all of them. This is minor but or some reason the composition seems off, like maybe the darkness in the background should be a bit more diagonal so it leads from the projector down to the icy man. The movement around the rest of the piece works really well though. Awesome work!
