Artist's Comments

some kids from school and i went to Disney's Festival of the Masters and did a reproduction of Renoir's "Luncheon of the Boating Party" in chalk.

(this si one of the better pics)

it was 7'x5'8" (or something like that) and took about 18 hours all together over a span of 3 days.

we had 4 people on our team, ~Zorrin, ~RomanA87, Sami, and I
hoo man, i love you guys, because this was HARD

never again shall we let our art teacher pick a painting, NEVER

we named them all too- counterclockwize from the right(going in a spiral thing) is:
Chalk Norris, ~Karatsuki, Tanktop, Blouse Cick with frills, Pedro (the waiter), Hat chick, The King (Burger King), Other Hat Guy, Lincoln, Trannie/Mulan/Fredy Kruger, Roman's chick (in the middle), Shirlock Holmes, Drinkin' lady, Smear (the guy behind the waiter talking to Drinkin' lady)

and please, if you comment, do NOT, I repeat NOT include the word "ambitious". i've heard it all weekend (along with about 15 of the same Disney songs in a continuousl loop) and i've realized it's another word for "retartedly optimistic"
close-ups will be added later :D

oh ps- there was tape around it so any footprints and the like weren't a part of it

Wow, this is really good. This Renoir paiting is one of my faves, awesome job and in chalk too!
:icondementedsped:
thank you so much! it was damn hard, but we had fun. I do actually really like this painting, but on a wall or in a book, not on my hands, feet, knees, arms, legs, neck, and face. :D

Today i offer up myself to this, I'm living for my dying wish, I give it all...now there's a reason, there's a reason, to give it all.

Pretty damned amazing; what a great thing to do with a group of artists...

:icondementedsped:
yes yes yes it was fun :D
except we think we got disqualified because we used Fixative and we weren't supposed to and no one got the memo. haha, oops.

but a bunch of tourists came by and commented on how they all had it on their wall (mostly the 50+ crowd though) and how they liked it and all. :D

ha, i'm still a bit of a pompous jerk because of it :D

corporations interpret "loyalty" the way a prisoner might interpret "dropping the soap".
