I chose the theme animal rights because I am a huge fan of any type of animals. I wouldn't want someone try to hurt any animals. My personal connection to my theme animal rights because I have my own animals and I wouldn't want anyone beating on them or hurting them. If I saw someone hurt an animal I would go go tell someone or try to help the animal out by myself. I would rather risk myself of getting hurt then see an animal get beat.

My problems of everything fitting together and getting them to be all conected. I had the most problems on how the pig should look. The decisions I had to make were what to put on the display and where to put them. I had to decide on what colors to put for the words and where the words whould go. I had to put white colored pencil an paint on the top and on the right side of the words that were in blue and "All animals have rights" to make them pop.

I think my piece was successful because if people see it they will think about how they should treat animals more better and not beat them. The things that are working is the middle of the display and the pigs that have blue tisue paper on them because it makes the people look at the display and don't subtract them from the rest of it. The things that are not working for me would be the blue writing because you could barley see it before I poped it out. Another thing that didn't work was that there was more writing on the left side and less writing on the right side. If I had a chance to do this project again I would probully put less writing on the left side and put more pictures of what happens because people don't know how to treat there animals right. Another thing I would change would be putting more facts about animal rights. Child abuse is very important to the artist because he got abused as a child or has seen someone get abused. The artist's view point is to get adults thinking about what could or will happen if they abused there child. In this work I see three kids standing in a corner a afraid of their life's. They keep backing up into the corner until they cant anymore because they don't want to get beaten to death. The kids are quite because they no if they scream they will get beaten more then they would if their quite.

Some emotions that get to me are if the kids had a better home then they are in now they wouldn't get beaten everyday. Why would people have a child when all their going to do is beat them to death every day? I think people have a child to get all their stress out because they think that having a child in their arms will make them change the way they are. The elements that the artist use to provoke my emotions would be how the kids are in a corner afraid of their life's. Another way it provokes my emotions is how the background is light and the kids are darker.
