I decided to create a piece about the state of higher education in our country. Many people go into large amounts of debt in college, and you can feel the stress of this as soon as you start filling out any financial forms when going into college, especially if you have a lower income. Many people myself included start to wonder if the massive amount of time and money spent to go through collage is really going to be worth it in this day an age where many employers don’t even look to see if you have a collage degree, or the jobs that you are searching for to use your degree will not hire you. This painting describes this feeling by putting the subject in a dark room as they hemorrhage there money and blood while still being surrounded by the bills and issues that come by day by day.
