Trinton Hancock

I chose Trinton Hancock The Story Basically I think his art is just a way he thinks it's like standing and letting it pull you in whatever directions it wants you to go in he feels that he finally being able to bring together the world of comic books narrating and the history of abstraction this is what he said his drawing and paintings tell the epic story of a group of mythical creatures. Walled mount while developing the most ancien installments and what amazed me me even though I thought he was disgusting and that he needed a whooping is picture was the first thing that caught my attention Trinton explains that his newest painting or colorful blast of energy or communication on from monks those vision of hope do in a way it's like Gods promise with rain after the flood stories basically I think art is Judy's way to think its like standing in the wind and letting it pull you into whatever directions it wants to take you and it's has no limits of what an artiste paint about a subject including witches, death, angels, animals, family, domestic objects and even Christ himself

For this blog post i chose to do my research on Trenton Doyle Hancock. when we saw the video in class about mr. hancock i was kind of skeptical because he is a christian, the son of a minister, and admitted that he is a very spiritual person, but it seems like some of his artwork may contradict the christian faith, or may be too "outrageous" for being a christian. as a child it seemed like he was faced with many different problems. in the video he claimed that he didnt have a very easy life which is how he came up with his alter ego torpedo boy. in the video there is a snipet that shows the viewers his place of work and it look so clutered; even his paintings look clutered, but as clutered as it may look he is still portraying a message and a vision in his artwork. i chose this particular piece because when i was reading the synopsis of the painting, it mentioned its flower-filled setting evokes the biblical Garden of Eden and it wasnt until i payed closer attention that i realized what it was saying. this artwork has so may mounds, colors, and creatures that cause the viewers to believe that hancock has quite an imagination. hancock's art is not the traditional type of art that i am use to seeing, but in viewing his art, understanding his background, and what it means to him makes for an interesting piece of art such as this one.

Trenton Doyle Hancock

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.

 

                                                   Trenton Doyle Hancock
                                              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?

Legend Loid Trenton Hancock simple style of symbolic saga of formations left me to wonders what thoughts or what part of his brains produce such bizarre images. What events occurred in his life to allow such visions? As I gazed at the print of the Legend Loid, I wondered did each of the allegorical creatures represent someone in his past. I found myself in the point of a endless time. I wanted to know who could each creature represent. I was sure the creature that masturbated on the flowers was Hancock known as ( Torpedo Boy).

Umm... Robert Crumb!?

A LSD user, Robert Crumb contributed his weird style to his long use of this psychedelic drug.
In this piece, Crumb depicts these characters to match the weirdly written word next to it. He shows these youthful girls as something so "weird" and misunderstood. You can't really tell exactly what they are doing. We as the audience is confused and I feel this is exactly how Crumb wants us to feel. He uses a simple pen and paper as his medium. With this, you get the image jumping off the paper. Any comically drawn figure isn't meant to be taken too seriously. Weirdly, I think Crumb is just fine with that, which makes him an awesome Artist.

Once you have familiarized yourself with their work, choose one piece to discuss in your post (it will be helpful to upload an image to your post) Focus on how the medium of drawing is important to the artist's work and how it functions in helping the artist convey their meaning. Remember to prove all of your claims with physical descriptions of the work.
