The impending doom of the world is an interesting notion. It's something that has plagued the minds of humans since the beginning of civilization. It is a topic of interest to many people because it is a question that has no answer. It explores the primal nature of human beings as well as our mortality. It has been explored through many different cultures.
With that said, I think it would be interesting to explore these certain ideas in an art lesson unit, there is something to be explored that is open ended, and art can be a way to visually predict the outcomes of our temporal world.
Creating a hybrid animal with my other classmates was exciting, and allowed me to draw inspiration from life but with a fantastical twist.

When I created something that was partially from my imagination, I was able to create a backstory for my creature. I also love when art projects coincide with or seem to roll over to other classes. I created the head with an angler fish in mind, which had to do with a super heroes/villains project I completed for my costume design class. Altering ideas and putting them in different contexts helps you grow as an artist!
