Artist's Comments

Team project for arts class. Made by me, Carlos and Susana. =)

They mostly drew and I painted the thing. What a nightmare! It's huge!

Acrylics, watercolor pencils and charcoal.
It's for 'Kids Guernica'
This project tells the story of a boy (middle head, in B&W) who was taken away from his mother when he was just a baby, who worked as a slave, who experienced death, tragedy and war, and later salvation.
Inside the head, what you see are his memories - the terrified face of his mother, the naked females whose heads are crying eyes (since he just remembes they were crying), the person running away, the piles of corpses...
The left side represents the war. The soldiers standing on top, laughing at the pain of others...
The right side represents salvation, and every element on this side is symmetrical to one on the other, like the man dying in the fire is symmetrical to the kids playing in the water.

I could go on forever, since this paintin has a really deep message and every element of it means something, but let's stick to the basics. :P

hope you like it!
