American support trooper by: Joey Palinkas

The reason why I picked this piece is because it interested me, I enjoyed working on this project, it took a little bit of time to finish. Looking through all the paintings and pictures, I think that if a lot of thought and time is put into a piece then I think it's successful. I found this piece and started it, learning different darks and lights in black and white, I wanted to keep it this way.

If I had another choice of either picking another figure to do, I would, doing the same thing over again is no fun and you won't gain much from it besides improvement on the figure itself.



Dropping Out by Joey Palinkas

My final project was on dropping out of high school and college. I wanted to make a message in the quality of this project, focusing on the quality that your life is important and you need an education to get a good job and to teach you proper lessons. When doing this project, I've found myself repeating and showing that you need education to be successful in mostly any field. I used a variety of pictures from the internet to tell the viewers and show expression, showing how depressing it is to not have a future. The clay figure was the most annoying piece of this project, I was trying to get it become normal looking. Then I decided to leave as a "pathetic looking person" to show that, in the world of jobs, that's all you're worth. Not really any more frustrations that I can recall but I think I did a good job.
