The concept of my work

Posted on February 1, 2009 at 7:30pm 0 Comments

Since people involve in earning money for their life, most of us devote most of life to pursue it, worry about it, and dealing with it. People would have thought that money would be the most significant thing in the world. Money is important indeed.

Hi Teddy thanx very much! Hope you are having a creative weekend and get all the stuff done for the assessment. Have you sprayed your piece yet? I really want to see that - I definitely agree with Elena that you should try out some colours. I am quite fond of the micky mouse - I it definitely fulfills your aim of making the viewer feel happy.

See you on Monday :)
