In the very beginning I had only a picture and tracing paper which then turned into a stencil, however the plain black and white contrast and clean edges gave no energy or sense of insanity. During the critique there were several ideas thrown out for consideration, three of which I tried, but once I started the scratch board there was really no stoping. By applying crayon to illustration board I then painted over it with india ink and let it dry. With this being my first piece I wanted to convey that I had grown as an artist and hopefully my last piece will show even more growth. I'm glad I've found a concentration I enjoy researching even though the statement needs fine tunning.Starving Artist

- I'm a senior in highschool with an unhealthy love for illustration and comic books. My ispiration comes from surrealism, but lately my interests in psychology and art therapy have been a raging force in the subject matter of my work.
