Artist's Comments

These are six collages that I made for my english final, comparing themes in the novels King Rat by James Clavell and All Quiet on the Western Front by Erich Maria Remarque. The top row looks at quotes from King Rat, while the bottom is focused on All Quiet. The first column compares the idea of how friendship is necessary for survival in wartime situations. The second looks at how adaptation is necessary for survival, and the third looks at how bonds themselves form within these situations.

I had a whole write-up about them, but I hardly feel like including it. I was up until 4:30 AM working on these one night, so that it would be ready to turn in. I wound up getting 100% on it, which saved my grade.

The only things printed from a computer (other than the quotations) were the images of the soldier with a gun, and the image of a soldier carrying his comrade. Everything else was either from old books (the trees were taken from an old copy of The Fox and the Hound), old pictures, or cut out of scrapbook paper.

Totally rad. It makes me want to read those books.

...Yes, I just said rad.

Thanks :) I loved both of them, actually. Especially All Quiet.

Rad is a pretty awesome word, I must say.

Being happy doesn't mean everything is perfect. It means you have decided to look beyond the imperfections.
The pages may burn, but the words fly away...

I really like this. Have you done more like it?

Thanks! :)

No I haven't, but it was so much fun that I really want to start.
