Is this art?
I guess so. It's kind of impressive photoshopping. I almost couldn't tell if it was a person.
Not gonna lie, considering it was made by a 9-year-old it's pretty impressive, content aside.
Not sure why it's all framed and shit, though.
>>321216925
sure
>I did this picture because I have a lot of fun when I play minecraft because when I play minecraft I don't worry about school and most of the time I worry about school things and I freak out
Stay strong.
>>321216925
Kids going places if he can edit photos at only age 9. Pretty impressive.
>>321219578

Gee, I wonder which country this comes from

I can't make fun of this OP, its not a 29 year old manlet who made this and posted it on Deviantart, this is an actual kid with talent.
>>321219660

>>321219638
What's really impressive is that he probably did it on a mobile device, since it appears to be a screenshot of the mobile version of Minecraft.
>>321216925
>9 year old kid can photoshop
As a graphic designer this worries yet astounds me greatly.
>>321216925
america is doomed
>>321219345
Probably a student gallery. Grade school kids submit pictures that get displayed at a college gallery as a community thing.
>>321216925
>Everyone saying 9 years old
Where does it say that? This is exhibit 9, not his age. Its elementary/primary school which extends up to high school, so the kids probably 16-17. which isnt very impressive, thats basic photo editing 101.
>>321220384
The 9 literally says 'age' in it, dingus
>>321220489
No it doesnt.
>>321219660

>Screenshot from the mobile version
>That virtual d-pad

>>321220554
He's right, it does. Zoom in.
Also, look at the kid, if you think that is a picture of a 17-year old you need to get out more.
>>321220384
>Its elementary/primary school which extends up to high school
What?
It says "age" in the 9.
Elementary schools do not have 16-17 year olds. You don't exist in elementary school past 11, unless you got held back.
>>321216925
It looks like it was made by a retarded child.
So yes, it's perfectly acceptable art. Let's be serious here. It was made by a kid.
>>321220603
Californian here.
Yeah its So cal,
>>321220384
>literally says "age" inside the 9

You are retarded.

Exactly this, for some reason people have this idea of quality and art being inherently related when that's simply not true.
>>321220896

You're the worst kind of person. 4chan isnt a place that bullies kids, they bully other people of age who do this shit. Theres nothing wrong with kids and Minecraft. Theres EVERYTHING wrong with grown men and minecraft.

Guys do you know how expensive proper framing is.
It can get up to $150-300 and they spent it on a 9 year old's minecraft photo.
>>321222254

That's not the translation for "freak out", "me desespero" is rather strong for a kid to say also.
>>321222386
wtf makes you think that frame looks expensive?
thats like a cheap simple frame you can get at and store.
prolly not even glass either just a thin slip of plastic that gives the illusion of glass due to the gloss reflecting light/image

I live in big bear, I love it out here. Only takes me 5 mins in sac or la for me to hate this state again though. You have to admit that a large majority of people from urban California are naturally fucking stupid or weak. I'm black and I even can't stand the pathetic white liberals in this state. Rural California is beautiful and the people are nice yet mind their own business. Urban California should be genocided though.
>>321224326

It's not too big a deal really. These kids are seem really smart now, but as they get older it will start to even out.
>>321224869
>Rural California

Rural California is places like Llano or Pearblossom, which someone in the Inland Empire like yourself should know.
Big Bear is one of the most popular ski/snow destinations in the world, as are the surrounding cities of Arrowbear, Crestline, and Arrowhead.
It's hipster-urban, nor rural. Whose buying all those Benzs?
>>321225054
I know it's not a big deal; that's why I wrote what I wrote, to make that fact known. I'm glad you caught it. There is hope for you, perhaps.

As an assistant professor at university, let me just say the difficulty of school is completely overblown. Especially college.
All professors want you to pass the class and succeed. All you have to do is put in the fucking effort and make it apparent that you care. It's not that hard.
Hell, I guarantee if you're in college, you can email your professor and say "I am having difficulty with (assignment). Here is what I have. Is this alright? How can I do better?" And your professor will directly tell you what you need to do to get an A in the class.
Kids are just stupid as fuck and don't put effort into their school work.

Watching too many Earthquake movies guy. I live near the San andreas, and survived the 93 quake in Northridge. House was standing perfectly firm, worst that happened was several books fell off the bookcase.
See over here we're prepared for quakes, walls are build thick, roofs are lightweight and won't cave in, and our foundations roll in place to counter balance the shaking.
Plus any good house is strapped down.
Now if a Tornado came, we'd be fucked. But the rockies prevent that from ever happening, so we're good.

Art school is horseshit. Last time I went to a showing for a school in my city, there was shit like literal clip art with deviantart tier hentai all framed up on display, trying to be sold for hundreds of dollars. I feel bad for the parents of these kids who spend tens of thousands of dollars per semester for that, and then also have to buy their kids' work because no one else will.
>>321216925
Yes, it is.
Not only is it technically sound but it perfectly demonstrates his feelings on the piece. He is at his most comfortable in the minecraft world so he literally put himself in there.
I bet most kids his age when asked to do a self portrait would just literally draw themselves, while at the same time expressing nothing about who they are.
>>321227213
Depends on the major. I can't speak for others, but I went to business school and all you had to do was pay attention. For undergrad anyways. I never went for my masters because after 16 years of school I had enough.
>>321227646
>I feel bad for the parents

It may be an unintentional statement on the current state of education and childhood in the US.
In this day and age, children have the technological resources to escape from the enormous pressure of an education system that demands far too much, and also suppresses a boy's natural need to play rough and actively.
Rather than discover the beauty and opportunity of the natural world through a school system which encourages him to partake in it through a childhood wonder, the burden had lead him to retreat from it. With access to excessive technology, this provided him both a means of escapism and play through a digital substitution of the great outdoors, and a a creative outlet for his frustration and misguided wonder.
What results is becoming adept in a computer environment which he has complete control over, and immersed deeply with his own imagination. He has combined these into an expression of what and where he truly feels at peace, and the domain where he will grow and thrive if supported.
>>321227821

Also now that I think about it, the kid forgot to put any tools on his hotbar, even though he's dual-wielding a diamond sword and a torch.
