strugglee

After I finally chose a concentration topic (fairy tales), I thought it would be easy to start doing art. Wrong. It was even MORE of a struggle for me to actually get down and start making things. All i could think was "this is the real deal, this stuff has to be cool", and it totally threw me off. In the end, the two pieces I came out with were polar opposites, but what I was really trying to focus on was that my art didn't end up looking like pages out of a story book. To do this I think I'm going to keep my pieces more on the realistic/not cartoon-ie side so they don't stat looking like illistrations.  






 I came across these vouge fairy tale pictures on the internet and thought they were cool in that they obviously represent a fairy tale but it isn't like a Disney storybook picture. This is what i'm going for in my art too
