City of Perpetual Autumn: Transients in Urbania
AKA How Far I Will Go in Order NOT to Write a Paper This is a painting-charcoal-thingy that I did for my Ethnography of North End Halifax because I didn't want to write a 10-15 page paper. It's a meter by meter swath of burlap with a brown cotton swath hand-sewn onto the back to help prevent the paints and charcoal from going through. Now, a meter by meter doesn't sound particularly big, but it takes up half my bedroom wall, so it IS big. Or my room is just disgustingly small... For the paints, I used acrylics, and the charcoal... is just black and white charcoal. I've never used either medium before.  Frankly, I finger-painted all the painted sections, and everything in charcoal was done on a wing and a prayer. The picture doesn't look as nice as real life, but as with all things, real life usually ends up looking better than a picture. There IS meaning behind all of it, but meh- I don't feel like writing it down. City of Perpetual Autumn: Transients in Urbania (c) Alyson Wonderland |

 reports, 1d 20h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |
