Artist's Comments

I wouldn't feel too sorry for the girl, I'd feel more sorry for her friends and family that are a few miles away that will have to suffer from the radiation for generations.

This is My final for my Studio Art Class, the prompt was to design a skateboard. I had an anti-war theme going on, but i wasn't sure what I wanted to do exactly. Then, in my history class, we had a debate on wether or not it was ethical to have dropped the bomb on Hiroshima. That got my brain gears turning, and I came up with this. The lyrics on the mushroom cloud are from System of a Down's song: Boom!

Modern globalization,
coupled with condemnations.
Unnecessary Death.
Matador corporations,
puppeting your frustrations with a blinded flag.
Manufacturing consent is the name of the game.
The bottom line is money,
nobody gives a fuck.
Four thousand hungry children
leave us per hour from starvation,
while millions are spent on bombs,
creating death showers!
BOOM
BOOM
BOOM
BOOM


This is dedicated to my awesome history teacher, Mr. Barnes.

Ooooooooooh there's a bad word on a school assignment~! O:
Lol is that allowed? owo;

This is sooo awesome. D:
It has so much meaning as well.
The colors are so amazing, the shading is great!
I just love this! It's so sad, yet so beautiful.
You're gonna get an A+, Missy. :nod:

Dude - if someone rode this as a skateboard, everyone who watched him ride would be like "... THAT'S BADASS RIGHT THERE."


PS: What kinds of paints did you use to do this?

The teacher didn't mind, the administrators kind of commented on it, but they didn't get me into trouble for it.

and thank you ^^ I used acrylic paints. I wishi could ride it, but it's my baby and i'd cry if it got a scratch.

Haha, well that's cool!
It's good that they wouldn't mark you down on that amazing piece of work for a word. I hope my studio art class is like that next year. *0*

No problem! ;D Acrylic paints? Oh, that makes sense! It dries like plastic, right? And I see what you mean. Hm, maybe you could find someone that produces skateboard designs and have him reproduce the design and you'd be RICHHHHHHHHH
