Senior Project
The whole idea of my senior project was to cover up another painting it had on the back. That has been questioned by many including visiting parents. It was a painting of two young teenagers sitting on a sidewalk smoking and drinking 40z while playing a guitar. It really didn't make sense having it hung up in the middle of the hallway at the school. After being in Yampah High-school for the past three years and seeing parents stare at it and then look at each other. I decided to create a new mural. Which is a painting of the colorado flag with the school name at the top Yampah mountain High-school. Then in the middle it has colorado in old school graffiti. Glenwood at the bottom which is where the school is located. The area code 970 because students come from Aspen through Parachute and the year 2013 for the year that i'm graduating. The word raw was incorporated because the painting wasn't about being perfect but about having a raw look to it. Also the green pine tree in the corner was set in place because it just reminds me of the rocky mountains.
