Artist's Comments

This is a section of my AS level coursework (well, one of the project's end pieces anyway) which shows a pig with peacock feathers. the idea was that natural things (ie the peacock feathers) could be used to make other more ugly things (the pig) beautiful. i dont really know myself if it worked or not, all i know is it took me a blooming long time to paint (acrylics on a board if you wanted to know).

(sorry bout the photo, i have discovered my lack of talent in that department and i couldnt scan it as it is over A2 size!)

help me out and tell me what you think :D

OMG, that is SO GOOD! I thought it was a photo, the paintwork is exquisite! though i don't know in quite what scenario you'd find a pig-bird. there's an interesting cross-selection idea. Almost which i was a scientist!
The concept is also very interetsing! is the pig in snow? he must be very cold!

Hmm...blue...Maybe he's a flying pig-bird! He's got the feathers!
I suppose if ther were pig-birds floating about, we'd get sued to them and then the world wouldn;t be a funner place. So maybe it's best they're imaginary. For now.
