IB Art

I was looking through the pictures on my computer today during Sociology and found the shots of my portfolio pieces of art. I Submitted these (along with a few others) with my Research workbook and got a descent grade...a 4. The piece pictured beolw is an acrylic on canvas with dimensions 18"x24". I created this for my girlfriend in the Spring of 2009, with inspiration from Keith Haring. At right is a recreation of Von Gltischka's "Vonster Monster". It is also an acrylic on canvas of similar dimensions. Von's work can be found at Von's website, www.vonster.com.



















This final piece was created with colored pencils. When is started i had no expectations of how it would turn out, or an idea of what it was going to look like. I think it turned out pretty good though.

IB Screwed❗

If you're anything like i was during my time as an International baccalaureate student i'm sure you've considered killing yourself on numerous occasions [a joke, of course, for those of you without a sense of humor...]. I found that the actual work itself is not as hard as it seems, but the workload is what makes it unbearable. I believe it would have been so much easier to create quality work if we weren't thrown into the projects with little instruction and minimal examples. One of the must frustrating aspects for me was not knowing what exactly was being asked of me as a student...It is for this reason that I am uploading a few samples of some of the projects that are required in certain courses, along with the grades they received by official IB scorers. Hopefully these papers will be of help to you! Best of luck with your studies and be sure to pass this site on if you found it helpful. (Scores and papers from the 2008 marking period)

Note: These papers are for guidance purposes only! No part of these works are to be copied, cited, or used in any way! doing so could result in disqualification from the IB program (this shit's on the internet! they'll know if you plagiarized...)
