Perfect World

"I used pencil crayon because its pretty simple and easy. I use pencil crayon because it's my "thing to use." Pencil crayon always gets the job done. This piece means a lot to me. Like I never thought of drawing this idea. I would always draw people or backgrounds. I even drew a shoe once! I really like this piece it shows what the "perfect" world would be like. My art is actually called "Perfect World." I didn't change my view on these problems while working on this project. I always wanted these problems to be fixed. I want too tell them that we are all the same. Rich to poor, black, to white, we are all the same. Maybe people will change when they look at everyones drawing. That they are people in this world who cared. I want to tell them "look at all these drawings!" I want them to ask themselves, "wouldn't the world be perfect if we all changed into being good?" I will probably donate money more to the poor and needy. I will try to stop other people from litering too. I will even be nicer to my brother and all the guys I know. I hope you like my art. Thank you and good bye!"
