appreciating the arts

Paul and I took in the Lubbock Arts Festival this past weekend. We wanted to share one of our favorite pieces with you. In this crayon drawing entitled "Me Holding Gary, my Pet Lizard" you will find an artist from the realist movement. It seems to be a self-portrait. One might interpret this artist to be larger than life - almost egotistical (look at the artist's size compared to the house) and not care very much for Gary...hence the way this boy is holding Gary. Take a look for yourself. Maybe your interpretation will be vastly different than mine.
