#ArtIsSmart

This was my entry for the art contest Gerard Way held on Twitter.

He announced it earlier this week twitter.com/gerardway/status/3… and it simply consisted in re-create/re-imagine his Twitter icon fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.net… in our style/idea using any medium we preferred, and then send the image to him via tweet using the hashtag #ArtIsSmart.

I started drawing this the night before the deadline, which was Friday 10th May (nope didn't sleep but this is kinda normal for me, and also doing things the last minute is as well haha), I didn't have something precise in mind so I didn't know exacty what I would made out of it, but I enjoyed working on it and in the end I'm glad with how it turned out

Plus I think this was a super great idea, I had fun partecipating and seeing all this art flowing around from all those talented people of the world, amazing! I didn't even remember how long it was since I've picked up a pencil the last time and started and finished something, so it was really inspiring! So much talent out there, awesome!
Everyone who entered must be proud to have taken a part in it, go hang your Certificate of Awesomticity on your wall! And congrats to the winners!
Can't wait till next time to do it again!
