In the fairy tale, Master and Pupil, a student learns magic on the sly and learns how to shape shift into any animal. He enchants a bridle and has his father sell him over and over again, and eventually attracts the wizard's wrath. I borrowed this theme from the fairy tale and an eyeball reference of Frederic Remington's "The Bronco Buster" for this picture. It's a representation of the struggle I had with a teacher at art college. It was such a poor and oppositional relationship that I didn't learn much. I often experienced dread and terror attending her class; I didn't draw for months as a result.

You might be surprised what you learned from your struggle with your art teacher.... if nothing else to continue despite criticism?!?

Good piece of art here... it has depth and story.

Thank you for your comment Scot. Well, it almost made me give up my art degree. I suppose that was a real benefit...rarely do we question why we’re doing things sometimes...yet I wish it had not had to happen this way :-P
