Once again I disguised Kate Bishop fanart as fine art and put it in a serious art event. People asked me what it meant – ‘Oh, you know, arrows,’ I said. ‘It’s a metaphor. Could have just as easily put an apple in her hand and it woulda been a different metaphor, but I rather liked arrows.’
Not even one person said ‘That is Hawkeye and you are being Miss Smarty-Artist Ass right now’ but I would have been delighted if they had.
This is acrylic on paper on panel, if you’re curious. It’s 24” x 24” (60x60cm) – the blue is iridescent pigment and it covers the arrows as well, but I couldn’t get it to photograph any more than this.

thanks Matt Fraction, that “Aww car” bit was way too relate-able.
THE HAWKEYES
When you’re a mess, looking in the mirror is the last thing you want to do. Kate and Clint are great together because they aren’t so similar as to reflect one another’s flaws. At face value they’re essentially nothing alike. Kate’s apparently got it together, but she’s got a lot of growing up to do and her rich upbringing has kept her from really understanding how the world works. Meanwhile, the weight of his own experience has made Clint’s life a shambles. Still, put a bow and arrow in the guy’s hands and suddenly all that experience counts for something. He grounds Kate. She helps Clint see past his own nonsense. They click. They balance each other out.

Clint has his own way of informing you when he means serious business.
#Clint is pretty much the same person every day #he really is #however Ivan really put both feet in it with the whole #line #because yo: do I look like Avenger to you? #(Clint is fully aware he does Not) #Do you see Hawkeye ™ purple and arrows? #No you damn don’t #Hawkeye the Avenger really tries to live up to a high standard #and he has the failed marriage as proof he’s bad at it #Hawkeye might not do this #Clint Barton sure as hell will (via when-it-rains-it-snows)
Hawkeye ™ is everything Clint Barton considers himself not to be and wishes he was.

I think a tumblr consisting solely of Renner pics captioned like Hawkeye panels is something I sorely need in my life and on my dash,
