Description
My first real painting!I think I told a few people I'd post this here...can't remember. I'm certainly not showing off, this isn't half as good as some of the people in my class.
This is my little brother, as a catboy. Yeah, this was for art class...the theme was 'vintage circus'...so I went with a circus freak thing. We were assigned what point of view and body parts we had to do (like hand and foot, half the face with focus on the eye, focus on the ear, etc) and I got normal view, half the face from the nose to the chin.
I finished this a while ago, and just...didn't get it back until after the art show, and then didn't feel like fixing up the photo to post it XD BUT IT'S HERE NOW.
Photoshopping only to fix the angle at which the picture was taken, cropping, and fixing the lighting slightly. And the signature. (download to view it larger)

Psht! Your painting was great! It looked much better than most of the paintings, not to mention that it has a cat theme...
Cat theme + Brooke = instant love!
Also, it was in the perfect place, right next to the food! My favorite part is the pain-stakingly perfect chain!

Oh, sure, like my artwork just because of the subject matter/placement. GOSH.

Wait, there's a strange whooshing noise coming from behind me. Oh wait, that was the sound of my caring, just flying away.
Urgh, sorry, I've watched WAY too much Scrubs tonight, and Dr. Cox is starting to get to me.
Anywho, I loved that painting for many reasons. I just put down a few of the obvious ones. That's me: Sir Points-out-the-obvious-alot! Besides, never be afraid to be yourself. I learned that from a really good painter, and I think it would help you a lot more than it will ever help me.
XP sarcastic philosopher is a way bad flavor for me, no?

Dr. Cox is hilarious. I wish I could come up with witty comebacks like he does.
Meh...sorry...I was a little cranky last night

I know! He and Jordan seem to have comebacks coming out of their ears. Did you hear the one that Jordan said in one of those baby episodes?
Dr. Cox: I'm going to get some more formula. If I'm not back in twenty minutes, it means I've picked up a hooker.
Jordan: Just make sure it's a girl, honey!

haha, thank you. It's really just a normal eye-view, but I think the way it's cropped makes it look interesting. It would have been cool to be able to do the eyes though
