Changing the World Green

Today, on July 10, 2009 we met with Dr. Walter R. Gholdson III, Dr. Gholdson is an artist who experiments with Abstract forms of visual art. He is a Vietnam veteran who told us about his life experiences and how he started doing abstract art. He started doing art as a form of therapy to keep his mind away from his life experiences during war. We discussed with him our different ideas of how we are going to create our Art Gallery. He is an expert at creating beautiful and interesting Collages. His work shows a lot of meaning and expresses his different views on life. For the next six weeks he will be helping us with ideas of how we can make our Art Gallery more interesting and appealing to other. We are a group of students working for a program called B.I.T.S (Building Information Technology Skills) which is ran by ITSRG an affiliation of Temple University. We are going to work hard to accomplish our main goal which is to get others to have an interest in our different forms of art. Another goal of ours is to persuade others to change the world and to make it into a better place to live. Our main theme is going green, which is centered on Recycling and helping the environment. Our art will focus on Recycling and Peace. We are going to create different collages with different meanings. We will post images of the whole process. Pictures will come soon.
