Hate is relative.
This is your brain on art. Any questions?
I borrowed the center character from a former student’s doodle. I borrowed the drawing style from Jon Burgerman, Pablo Picasso, Keith Haring and the Ancient Mayans. I borrowed the palette and crown from a Jean-Michel Basquiat painting. I borrowed the title from Maurice Sendeck. Everything is due back in two weeks. A few weeks ago, my young mural collaborator, Ben, created a flurry of doodles. We then selected some of those doodles and dropped them into a rough composition. Next, we refined and tightened the composition and decided what colors will go where. Next stop, basement wall… stay tuned for the thrilling conclusion.
Everyone’s favorite book, turned animated film, turned Broadway musical, turned Jr. version musical is now a hit tee shirt.
A student doodled this when he should have been working. I digitized and colorized it when I should have been working. I think it works.
A drawing becomes a print. A print becomes a design. A design becomes a T-shirt. T-shirts are worn at an event. And so on.
Here’s an alternative to the cornucopia of cornucopia clip art. This illustration was recently featured in Carbon Copy Magazine. Perhaps you have the urge to color it in. Satisfy that urge. |
