#11 Stop the Violence

I love to look at art from other artists. It challenges and inspires me to continue working on my own art. While looking through some various websites i stumbled across Francois Robert. He has some extremely creative approaches to his photography, but the one series i want to talk about here is his series "stop the violence". Seriously, when i first looked at it i hated it. It made me want to throw up and i didn't want to look at another picture. But i did... because i'm like that annoying kid that always asks, "why?" And by the time i was done i REALLY appreciated what he did. It speaks, very clearly. Take a look, and while you're looking i'd like you to think, what do these say to you? And what can you do to get your point across?



If you'd like to see more of his art visit his website (click here).

#10 Ole!

I'm having a bit of a busy day today, so instead of writing something myself i thought i would share a TedTalk video that is really encouraging to me. Enjoy!
