Siena Student Art

This is a drawing done by a friend of ours named Brittney Wineinger. She completed this in her drawing class right her at Siena College. I feel this is real artwork in comparison to some of the "artworks" we viewed in class such as Damien Hirst's "Platinum Skull" or Marcel Duchamp's "Fountain". This drawing (though similar to others who had to draw the same thing as a part of the class assignment) is at least an original work created from scratch by the artist. Might I also add that this is a particularly good piece and took a lot of time and detail to complete, trust me I've witnessed her shade for hours on one drawing.
