Giving Thanks for Inuit Jargon: Round 2
March 6th, 2007Round two of Inuit Jargon’s First Annual Crayon Turkey Challenge.
Were you good enough for second place, or is your goose already cooked?
Were you too chicken to enter, or did your drawing just run a-fowl? Let’s talk turkey…

This piece expands on the theme by taking the standard turkey and accessorizing it. Extra points for being the only pirate themed entry.

After noticing the striking black on yellow composition and the whimsical pageantry of the feathers, it’s really the details that make the piece. I applaud the artist for not adhering to strict realism by giving his/her turkey a fade hair cut and a beak and waddle that look like lips.

The music notes flying at the turkey seem to be a direct parallel to the music Inuit Jargon and Morningbell played at that show. Great use of metaphor. Stunning composition and dynamic sense of movement.

Self-explanatory.
Check back next week for the final round!
