2D Media: Mixed Media

I think the Pour, Pool, Puddle Challenge was somewhat successful. I think most people liked that I was finally showing my point of view and that the piece itself was very personal due to using my own dad's obituary. I wanted to add another note that makes it more personal and use it also as to explain why I chose the suit colors I did. It is simply that my dad wore a dark blue suit with a red tie for the visitation and funeral service. I was upset that the idea of embalming was not clearly recognizable and that was a suggestion that was raise, to make it easier to understand, but I'm not sure how I'm going to do that. The actual process of embalming is injecting the chemicals into the veins but I thought trying to convey that would have been even harder to understand. Either way, I am happy with how it turned out and I was happy to be able to represent my view and I think I want to keep exploring it. I'm just not sure how. I know I believe in science and what that information tells us. I do not believe in heaven, hell, reincarnation, spirit worlds, or any sort of afterlife. I simply believe we have a organs that have to function for us to survive and if something stops working so do we. It just stops, we end, we stop being conscious, we stop living, and that's it.
