Description EDIT: i have changed the previous image to this piece as this is my actual final piece for Burning Iniquity drawing. The one i uploaded before is only the mock up.

Here is my latest work. I have been busy with my school stuff and this week is the final lap to my final assessment. I'm just taking a brief break to update what I have been up to so far.


this is a mock-up for my final work but i feel this will be the one that i will keep instead of the final. it talks basically about the cycle of wrong doings. the cigarrette speaks of addictions, vices, strongholds. it goes in cycles, round and round, repeating itself till it finally destroys.

the smoke has imagery of faces of ghouls that represents evil spirits or the negativity. this is a gloomy piece.

I've added my initials ATAL at the bottom left of the work, it is very faint.

reference is taken from 2 photos i took of my classmate
Pastel pencils and charcoal on plywood a little bigger than A2

I really like the sense of disintegration - she may look like a genie out of the bottle in some way too. Her top and arms looks so real, and the color sheme just perfect for the theme.

I understand your feeling! hahha! I just finished my EXAMS!!!! Manz..it has been three weeks of me going crazy studying and drinking ginseng and chicken essence and facing the horrors of having mind blank during exams. Finally its all over. Phew!

So how's art school doing for you? Are you enjoying it?

Good luck on your assessment!

hmmm about art school, it's very tiring maybe coz i didn't balance my time and sch work well enough so when assessment is drawing near is hectic. I feel art sch kinda challenges individuals to be ourselves and helps alot in developing a style in art. so quite tiring but fun! ^^

The burning effect is really beautifully done, the brown textures look neat too. How do you find doing surrealism art so far (I am reading up on it for an exam, haha...)

Poila-Invictiwerks In reply to Atrapado [2010-04-28 17:59:28 +0000 UTC]

Er, I just wanna know how do art students write art critiques (the general technique) when given an art piece (I don't mind reading the essay to find out the style of presentation

Like, say for example in the written exam, if I were given a piece by Hieronymous Bosch, say "Garden of Earthly Delights", I would be tasked to either write an interpretation, or write a mini-essay discussing on historical aspects of mentioned artist relating to work given.

Hmmm... we have not reached that stage yet, it would probably occur when i reach lvl 1 in fine arts in august this year. about the essay i msged you earlier, it touched a little on that aspect. but mainly but my other modules we just describe techiques and what we have learn through little notes to maybe a paragraph on each art piece we observe.

i'll try to find the file to send you through the note now!
