Trenton Doyle Hancock really captured my attention, following the video we saw in class. The way he portrays his point of views is extremely interesting. He is a modern young artist, who uses a vivid imagination when creating his art pieces. The way he incoporates his comic perspective into the realism he experienced as a young boy is amazing. His creation of "mounds" (good) and "vegans" (evil) along with his own inner super hero "Torpedo Boy" has catipultate him into one of the most famous artist of today. As I browsed the internet, I ran into this mural created by Trenton Doyle Hancock. It located in Cowboy Stadium.
From a Legend to a Choir (2009) Vinyl print
Approximately 41 feet by 108 feet
Located on SE Ramp Wall (silver - star levels)
It states that here he is representing his own version of The Garden of Eden and The Summer of Love. The medium here would have to include the vinyl and the actual substance used to print. i.e. ink, or whether its screenprinted or painted. Here he uses the different vibrant colors and the size of his murals to draw people into his painting. His "mounds" are attention hoggers, for anyone within a close area. A great portion of his artwork, whether it be paintings or collages have to do with how he was raised. He is the son of a preacher, and actually uses this to his advantage. He creations have a storyline line where good fights evil and the ending just leaves you asking who won?
