First time I've ever agreed with anything resembling that sentence 😄

Very cool. One teeny tiny thing: I'm sure you chose the colours on purpose and I may be approaching this from too much of an illustration point of view instead of "art", but I had trouble seeing the S in aequitas because it's grey on grey. Or maybe it shows up better in person. Don't let me deter you from your concept, I thought you'd like to know. Especially because the rest is excellent.

IME the instructor will probably love it, the administrators might not.

Easily solved with a small white outline indeed.

I’m transferring next semester anyway but it’s art it’s supposed to challenge the status quo

Yea it shows up better in person but I did do that on purpose. I did a lot of weird stuff with this piece. You can’t tell from the picture but the gold leafing on the halo gives a glowing effect in some lighting

I just didn’t like the darker grey so I painted over it
