I wanted to change the meaning of my advertisement to make it represent artistic culture instead of female vanity. I took the first step by cutting the paintbrush out of the girl’s mouth, which I came to see as dog-like and suggestive. I began to trim her perfectly styled hair and color it, so that she became more hip and alternative. Then I stared at the text and saw the words that truly represented my vision. Instead of “Life Takes Visa: So many colors, so little time”, I pasted “Life is so many colors”. With these words, I not only was making a statement about artistry, I was acknowledging art as part of multiculturalism.
