Teepee, is your art work on this site?

I was the subject of a painting called "The Avie".

When the idea was first pitched to the head lecturer the artist was shut down bc the piece will not be understood.

After speaking to the upset artist i basically said that the lecturer basically breathed life into the painting with his judgmental comments. I figure if a painting of an Avie is judged long before the paint hits the canvas then she has filled the brief.

She went a head and painted "the avie" as per her initial design.

I went to the opening of the art show months later and as i approached the entry the piece could be seen before the electric doors opened... which sent me into a every emotion you can think of at once that happened everytime i tried to walk up to it.

Still took me many hours to view it in detail.
The finished piece did receive allot of praise and accolades and was submitted(by the lecturer) to a subsequent art gallery for an assessment .
Although it didn't make it to the walls of this secondary prestige gallery it still opened up new doors for the artist.

Continue with your work Teepee, bc i have found allot of people look at art and don't understand what they are looking at simply bc they aren't art originated.
