The themes that I chose from The Last Lecture to depict in my art project are; brick walls are there for a reason, and make a decision: Tigger or Eeyore. I favored these themes because they resonate with me and can both be illustrated coherently within the same drawing. In the cartoon I drew, Tigger sits morosely on top of a brick wall pitying a dejected Eeyore. Eeyore, with his pessimistic attitude, is unable to find a way past the wall to join Tigger.

By reading the opinions of these great thinkers, and by discussing their…

The artwork is more than just scribbles on a wall but a visual statement of their beliefs and view point of their era. Graffiti created in dangerous private places are more than just kids writing their names but artists that are creating pieces that are grander, more elaborate, than the cave men paintings. I…

These elements had to collide to create artwork that represented the human condition. I have found that through my process there are also these two opposites at play when constructing my artwork. Not only do these opposites form the artwork in the most complete way but they also connect with…
