''Art is what you can get away with.''
- Andy Warhol

How far can one go for the sake of art?

This is a short animation I made for a school art class, only had less than a week to do it, so some bits are a bit rushed, but anyways I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out.

"Conceptual, Though Provoking. ^.^"

date: 15 hours ago

That was very conceptual, thought provoking, interesting and unique. It makes you wonder whether that situation has or ever will happen, and whether the canvas would be allowed to be put up in an art gallery.

"Great concept"

date: April 9, 2008

I love the concept. It well thought through.

It really speaks of how many artists end up. They become most famous after they are dead. You kind of mixed the both elements of dying and being famous after you die. Very nice idea.

Although, you could have made it longer. Like scenes where he loads the gun and so on. It would make the viewer dragged in a lot more.

"Wow, in a good way."

date: March 26, 2008

Great flash video. You capture the frustrations and angst of an artist in a very vivid and ultimately beautiful way. Having a dad who is an artist himself I know the struggles first hand after witnessing them throughout my life. Good work and keep submitting.
