Out of all the IB art show pieces, this is one of the few that I really liked. Although this started out as a still life of a papier-mache statue at my art teacher's studio, I gradually stopped looking at the statue and just painted the thing however I wanted to. It was cool.
This painting goes with my theme of "Fairy tales" and is meant to show how Don Quixote was living in a fairy tale with his impractical, chivalrous ways. The background is meant to look like the backdrop of a play and the blue part underneath is just cloth, not water.
This was painted with acrylics and the original size is 24" x 30". It was finished in December of 2006.
I'm going to put up only a few more pieces from the art show. Not all, because I don't like most of them.
DeviantART has partnered with FAIR to help promote equality through The Love Unites Shepard Fairey Equality Project. We're asking deviants to align themselves with this cause and have their work judged by Shepard Fairey himself!
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.
In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.

This article explores the basics of watchers and how we react to certain situations. Although it does not affect some deviants, and the tips are generally related to common sense, we hope the article is a worthwhile read and that the majority learn something from reading this.
