- Sandra: Art, Woo, shows us the world through the eyes of the artist.
- Sandra: With his artwork, the artist grants us an intimate insight into his view on the world. Quite often, however, his view vastly differs from our own. To overcome this conflict, we are forced to call into question our own perception of the supposedly objective reality.
- Woo: The Big Animal Coloring Book – Ages 3 to 6.
- Sandra: Someday, I’ll be able to color within the lines!

To everyone shocked that woo can read. He did find raccoon porn on youtube. That takes reading.
@ AckAckAck:
And the Pyro stuff too!!!
@ Nivarion:
What if he used Google glasses? Or voice command? Or if it was in the history? Well I guess that is a un debatable fact.

*facepalm* how could I not remember that? XD Guess Woo can judge this book’s cover(or just Sandra’s coloring)
@ Trimutius:
your thinking of cat eyes, but racoons aren’t that different, both have eyes that were ment to see in the dark. Not read.
That is an incomplete statement, Sandra… and taken as its entirety cannot be deemed correct.
.
Art goes through at least three bias-filters from start to finish:
#1. The subjective position of the artist (noted).
#2. What portion of that the artist wants to portray.
#3. The subjective interpretation of the viewer.
… Additionally, there is a potential 2.5 … which is the actual ability of the artist to convey what they intend in the medium chosen.
.
How much of the artist’s view of the world makes it from stage 1 to stage 2 depends on the relative consistency between the artist’s subconscious mind and their conscious mind… Stage 2.5 filters generally by body-control.
As for the 3rd filter… the viewer…. They can only interpret the art in terms of fragments of their own prior knowledge.

Well I’d say at the very least, the end of “The Life She Has Chosen” does give that implication. Otherwise, how do you explain the sad look of Butterfly’s face?
That she’s unhappy about letting See-Kay down? What makes you think it’s because she thinks her decision is somehow wrong?
@ Blitzkrieg1701:
Meheh.
