recently i have been researching and studying graffiti, particularly LA based graffiti art. i've always found this type of painting/drawing/creating to be extremely interesting and surprisingly thought provoking. some of my favorites include

objective

My objective that I will be exploring over the next few months will be stimuli and circumstances and the art that comes from it. One easy and obvious example of this is 9/11. The actions and the subsequent emotions produced a number of songs, movies, and pieces of art. While some were meant to manipulate emotion, most were made from emotion, namely confusion, grief, and loss.
