VASE 2009 + me being stupid
I have such a horrible temperament. honestly, i should never have kids.
photos from an art competition, that really tested my patience plus stunning artwork, too! updates on it later, but no one gives a shit ehh

honestly, like, i saw some of the most spectacular artwork, like, oh my god, it made me feel so horrible and inspired, and more on my gross no-one cares feelings lmao

anyways, it started Friday at 12:30 PM, and I came home at 12:15 AM Sunday.
holy fuck, i know right? I watched wall-e, the incredible hulk, iron man, charlie and the chocolate factory, the mummy III (crazy chinese olympics exploitation shit), and the dark knight on the charter bus, ate way too much food, and had like 71 bucks from the contest lmao



so basically, it was at Houston - location of state winners
artwork chosen from class (best), dependent on art year + division. i was division 1.
everyone who got a 4 (best of the best) at regionals
were picked through, and the top 10% got to state (best of the best of the best)
people who got 4 at state got recognized (best of the best of the best of the best)
and then the motherfuckers who got golden seals (usually division 4s or really impressive lower divisions) were, just, like, spectacular (best of the best of the etc etc etc). the picture above was a golden seal~~~
of course, there was a certain number of golden seals, and not all of them were fabulous, but art's subjective yay

some of the art was disappointing, in that it looked fabulous far away, but looked like shit close up, of course i'm putting it bluntly and stupidly err
most of the prismas were disappointing because they just weren't layered like i like them lmao OCD aha


not a golden seal, but still pretty
division 4

not a golden seal, and not that impressive up close, but still very pretty
division 3??


hahah i loved this one, even though it wasn't  the best penmenship i've ever seen
division 2


so basically, it's like impossible to get a sculpture into a golden seal
but this one was
and it was brilliant
division 4


this golden seal was iffy for me, but still fab
division 4



this motherfucker was from our school JASPER REPRESENT~~
he was like the only freshman to get a gold seal in DIVISION 1
damn rite, he's a 9th grader J A J
as a ninth grader, too, he makes me feel so inferior LMAO OTL
