AP ART
Johnny C:
I got a 2.
Kai:
--- Quote from: Scandanavian War Machine ---well when i was in highschool i took an old wooden school chair (the kind with the little desktop attatched to the arm); it had to be from the 20's or 30's; and i painted it all white then used black acrylic paint over that to create a tribute to Hunter S. Thompson.
using a stencil i made of an Annie Liebovitz photo, quotes from his life and writings, and a few of those caricatures (sp?) that guy printed in a book (sorry i forgot his name; you h.s.t. nuts know who i'm talkin about).
anyway, i was pretty proud of it.
--- End quote ---
His name is Ralph Steadman, and that chair sounds pretty ace. Any chance of a photo?
Johnny C:
My concentration in full. It got a 2.
Lines:
i generally think that AP art is a silly idea. why? because it tells you nothing. it tells you a select few opinions. criticism is all opinion. there is no definite yes and no in art. which is why ap art bugs me.
Johnny C:
And really it didn't give me any opinions, just "NOT GOOD ENOUGH." Not good enough to meet what standard?
There were some people in my class who really didn't deserve the mark they got - easily the most artistically brilliant fellow got a 3, while someone who just blew up photographs got a 5 and also got the Art 30 award. It was silly.
