"Curious Creativity"

Today I went on a Spanish trip. Despite the technicality that I went through (I wore my uniform when we were allowed to not wear them!) I found myself intrigued with the murals and painting I encountered throughout the whole tour. The artist that was on exhibit Harry Hernandez I have to admit was very creative. When I first walked up those super steep stairs into the gallery. I was welcomed with glitter, color, and overall to the untrained eye JOY. I loved the color that was displayed on the paintings I never thought something that looked so unorganized seem so meticulously placed to create am image inside an image. After our tour guide explained the artist's take on the color, I was stunned I thought to myself "Wow, this guy is very creative". The glitter and color I thought symbolized joy and happiness in fact represented doom, sadness, and despair. The people in the paintings were in fact homeless people and the color was all their emotions that they carry spilled out so every one could see the magnitude of sadness they live with. After seeing the paintings and all, we headed down the street start on mask making which was fun, but then again when isn't COLORING fun. I learned something today without really knowing. I learned that creativity has no boundaries you can make anything you want from the most unusual materials.
